You're a man without truth
A man of greed, a man of hate
A man of envy and doubt
You're a man without a soul
All the money in the world
Will never fill that hole
You're a man bought and sold
You're a man without a soul
You bring nothing good to this world
Beyond a web of cheating and stealing
You hide behind your wall of lies
But it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
You're a man without shame
Without dignity and grace
No way to save face
You're a man without a soul
How do you think this story ends?
It's not a matter of how
It's just a matter of when
'Cause it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
There's a darkness all around you
To cover all you're hiding
There's no light in your eyes
You're a man without a soul
Now the exits will be closing
A sad life will be exposed
No dealer and no deals
'Cause you're a man without a soul
How do you think this story ends?
It's not a matter of how
It's just a matter of when
'Cause it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
A man of greed, a man of hate
A man of envy and doubt
You're a man without a soul
All the money in the world
Will never fill that hole
You're a man bought and sold
You're a man without a soul
You bring nothing good to this world
Beyond a web of cheating and stealing
You hide behind your wall of lies
But it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
You're a man without shame
Without dignity and grace
No way to save face
You're a man without a soul
How do you think this story ends?
It's not a matter of how
It's just a matter of when
'Cause it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
There's a darkness all around you
To cover all you're hiding
There's no light in your eyes
You're a man without a soul
Now the exits will be closing
A sad life will be exposed
No dealer and no deals
'Cause you're a man without a soul
How do you think this story ends?
It's not a matter of how
It's just a matter of when
'Cause it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down
Yeah, it's coming down

Album: Good Souls Better Angels
Non viene mai fatto il nome dell'uomo senz'anima a cui si riferisce la canzone ma è chiaro a tutti a chi si riferisce Lucinda Williams in questo bellisimo blues. Sì proprio lui, #45
