Young Male Suicide Blessed By Invisible Woman Songtext / Lyric

I am still a young man

Though my body's growing old

I am older than the saviour

And the greatest story ever told



Lonely in a cafe

Starring at an empty plate

In the sorrow of the traffic

I felt my mind disintegrate



Glory be upon you

As the river rounds the bend

Through the wood of Sycamore

Where the colours darkly blend






I am still a young man

Though my body's getting old

I am older than the saviour

And the greatest story ever told



I caught my hand in tangled briar

As I reached out for my name

And now I suffer in the forrest

From the injuries of fame



Glory be upon you

As you walk into the sea

Let the water close behind you

In your brine eternity



I am still a young man

Though my body's getting old

I am older than the saviour

And the greatest story ever told



Glory be upon you

As they lay you in the earth

I know that you can hear e singing

The song before you lonely birth
