| You should have seen him
|
| Lying alone in helpless silence in the night
|
| You should have seen him
|
| You would have seen his eye reflecting in the light
|
| So for the old man
|
| Ashes to ashes, earth to earth and dust to dust
|
| No one will see me
|
| No one with guilt to share, no secret soul to trust
|
| And he won’t be found at all
|
| Not a trace to mark his fall
|
| Nor a stain upon the wall
|
| Louder and louder
|
| Till I could tell the sound was not within my ears
|
| You should have seen me
|
| You would have seen my eyes grow white and cold with fear
|
| Heard all the things in Heaven and Earth
|
| I’ve seen many things in Hell
|
| But his vulture’s eye of a cold pale blue
|
| Is the eye if the Devil himself
|
| Take me away now
|
| But let the silence drown the beating of his heart
|
| I can’t go on
|
| Let me be free from wretched sea that I can not see
|
| Please let me be free |
