Paradise Lost - Smalltown Boy Lyrics






You leave in the morning
With everything you own
In a little black case
Alone on a platform
The wind and the rain
On a sad and lonely face

Mother will never understand
Why you had to leave
But the answers you seek
Will never be found at home
The love that you need
Will never be found at home

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.

Pushed around and kicked around
Always a lonely boy
You were the one
That they'd talk about around town
As they put you down

And as hard as they would try
They'd hurt to make you cry
But you never cried to them
Just to your soul
No you never cried to them
Just to your soul

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.

Cry, boy, cry...

You leave in the morning
With everything you own
In a little black case
Alone on a platform
The wind and the rain
On a sad and lonely face

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.

    In this version the story is not about a young gay boy, but a dark and twisted young Metalhead that wants to kill his family because of how they shun him. Alcoholic father and abusive mother and being bullied at school.

    The Bronski Beat original is a classic from my childhood and this cover is stunning - especially with the Devin Townsend backing vocals.

  73. A.... C....

    είμαι ένας μπουρτζόβλαχος που ήθελα την δόση μου γκοθίλας πρωί πρωί!

  74. r.... f....

    having just seen paradise lost in whitby performing this epic cover it made my night
    absolutely fantastic the whole performance including the support bands

  75. J.... M....

    Since the release of this album (2002), I can't stop listening to this song. Missing Paradise Lost sounding like Symbol of Life, Host, Believe in Nothing and One Second.

    J.... M....

    Jorge Mezzomo Neto To be honest, they sound miles better now that they’ve rediscovered their roots when they first started out and not sounding poppy after their peak that was Draconian Times. Plague Within and Madusa are both great, and what the band originally sounded like.

  76. P.... ....

    It reminds me... of ... Depech Mode 😓

  77. I.... E....

    This rocks.

  78. A.... N....

    Just found this, I´m very sorry to all

  79. P.... F....

    Great !!!

  80. �.... �....

    ааххууеенно

  81. T.... O....

    LGBTQ Community is now a marxist shit show but this song aint too bad

  82. o.... ....

    БОЖЕ 10 РОКІВ Я ЩЕ НАВЧАВСЯ ЯК ТОДІ БУЛО

  83. A.... K....

  84. P.... L....

    This song and the Xavier cover are awesome on this album.....feel the emotion!

  87. S.... R....

    This is a really good cover.

  88. L.... 7....

    That moment when you find a random song on the Internet that you relate to so much that its a strange coincidence.

  89. E.... S....

    Simplesmente amei essa versão de Smalltown Boy. Love this!

    E.... S....

    Eu acabei de descdobri esse cover
