How many times have I died because of sorrows?
So many times I've been scared about tomorrow
Never knew why, now I'm asking for a reason
How many tears, tell me, how many tears will fall?
How many fools have been paying for the evil?
How many "Gods" have been lying to the people?
Where are you now that I'm asking for the reason?
How many tears will fall?

When the sheets are empty - Do you like it like that?
When your heart is empty - Do you like it like that?
When your pockets are empty - Do you like it like that?
When your life is gettin' cold
Do you like it like that?

How many lies can you tell to hide an error?
How many smiles can you practice in your mirror?
Where are you now that I'm asking for the reason?
How many tears, tell me, how many tears will fall?
How many men have been trusted out of season?
How many promises broken without reason?
Where are you now and what about tomorrow?
How many tears will fall?

When the sheets are empty - Do you like it like that?
When your heart is empty - Do you like it like that?
When your pockets are empty - Do you like it like that?
When your life is gettin' cold
Do you like it like that?
