I cannot be of help
But you see my situation
I don't recognize myself
It happened without reason
It happened just like that
I've no more information
Beyond the simple fact
There was never any warning
There was never any sign
It's just that I woke up this morning
And eternity was mine
Search my family history
Analyze my dreams
Expose my contradictions
Reduce me to the mean
What you find might be revealing
It might very well be true
But you don't know what you're dealing with
You haven't got a clue
There was never any warning
There was never any sign
It's just that I woke up this morning
And eternity was mine
God knows I don't deserve this
After all the pain I've caused
But do me one last service
Before I take that walk
Before my soul flies from this chamber
And heaven beckons me across
Read me what the Saviour said
To that thief upon the Cross
There was never any warning
There was never any sign
It's just that I woke up this morning
And eternity was mine
I have no explanation I cannot be of help But you see my situation I don't recognize myself It happened without reason It happened just like that I've no more information Beyond the simple fact There was never any warning There was never any sign It's just that I woke up this morning And eternity was mine Search my family history Analyze my dreams Expose my contradictions Reduce me to the mean What you find might be revealing It might very well be true But you don't know what you're dealing with You haven't got a clue There was never any warning There was never any sign It's just that I woke up this morning And eternity was mine God knows I don't deserve this After all the pain I've caused But do me one last service Before I take that walk Before my soul flies from this chamber And heaven beckons me across Read me what the Saviour said To that thief upon the Cross There was never any warning There was never any sign It's just that I woke up this morning And eternity was mine Explain Request ×
