Brave men. never seen again, no one finds escape
Most men, find a bitter end, I decide their fate
Hard men, not so hard
When faced with what they'll find
Dead men. they don't talk, or leave a trace behind
I tried to be careful, I tried to ensure
That all decent people would never endure
The pain and the torture they face every day
Now I've set my sights on one man
The one that got away
Fine men, behind the scenes, they find a way to hide
Good men, whatever that means, not so good inside
Blind men, makes no difference, sin won't fail to see
God's men, full of innocence. bring their guilt to me
I tried to be careful, I tried to ensure
That all decent people would never endure
The pain and the torture they face every day
Now I've set my sights on one man
The one that got away
I let down my defences
I'll never forgive myself
I can almost taste his presence
It's a fear he has never felt
I tried to be careful. I tried to ensure
That all decent people would never endure
The pain and the torture they face every day
Now I've set my sights on one man
The one that got away
