Tragedy - Malena Ernman (+ lyrics)

La voix du Nord ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When times are hard you ask for sweeter tunes When days are tough the nights bring full saloons But when I swing and change to minor chords That's when the audience goes wild Here comes the tragedy The sound of agony The tears you love to cry The pain that wants no remedy People tell me they like me to smile Bring joy and relief for awhile But when all the music starts They love the sound of tragedy Here comes the tragedy The death of harmony The tears you love to cry The pain that fights serenity People tell me they like me to smile Bring joy and relief for awhile Deep inside your heart you want the tragedy I walk the stage and sing you've got a friend I find applause towards the happy end But when I swing and change to minor chords That's when the audience goes wild One I'll direct your success Two every rule we transgress Three it's the drama they bless Four find the spleen at the core Five it's the tears they adore Six and when they weep give them more Here comes the tragedy The death of harmony The tears you love to cry The pain that fights serenity Here comes the tragedy The sound of agony The tears you love to cry The pain that wants no remedy People tell me they like me to smile Bring joy and relief for awhile Deep inside your heart you want the tragedy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
