Tragedy Lyrics

Rock myself
Well, it's hard to sing over that


The time has come, better light up a candle
For the one you love
It gets late, even late for a scandal
Down here in this mud
Pull back the curtains, put on your clothes
I’m tired of hidin' something everybody knows
It's for all to see my tragedy

I crossed myself but the ghost got in me
It got in me good
I didn’t think love so young would win me
But he won me good
And when love falls, it falls like rain
One thing's for sure I ain't never gonna change
It's for the world to see this tragedy

(Tragedy)
And it hurts so bad when I rock myself to sleep
(Tragedy)
And the crying shame is you put all the blame on me, yeah, yeah

Whisper Wednesday's words of wisdom
Seal them with a kiss
I should have learned, should have lingered and listened
Now it's come to this, whoa
You can turn your head, you can walk away
You're gonna hear every word they say
All the world loves to see a tragedy
(Tragedy)
And it hurts so bad when I rock myself to sleep
(Tragedy)
And the crying shame is you put all the blame on me, yeah

(Tragedy) Yeah
Now what might have been will never ever be
(Tragedy) Yeah
And the crying shame is you put all the blame on me

(Tragedy)
And it hurts so bad when I rock myself to sleep
(Tragedy) Yeah
And the crying shame is you put all the blame on me

(Tragedy)
Now what might have been will never, never, never, never gonna be, yeah
(Tragedy)
Oh, it's a crying shame you put the blame on me
(Tragedy)
Put the blame on me, put the blame on me, put the blame on me
(Tragedy)

(Tragedy)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
