The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg
Let me tell you 'bout my life Let me tell you 'bout my dreams Let me tell you 'bout the things that happen Always real to me Let me tell you of my hope, of my need to reach the sky Let me take you on an awkward journey Let me tell you why Let me tell you why... Why should these curses be laid upon me? I won't be forgiven 'till I can break free What did I do to deserve all this guilt? Pay for my sins with the sale of my soul Demons are trapped all inside of my head My hopes are gone, reach for heaven from hell My sins are many My guilt is too heavy The pressure of knowing Of hiding what I know I'm able to see things Things I don't want to see The lives of a thousand souls weigh heavy down on me I know they're crying for help, reaching out The burden of them will take me down as well The sin of a thousand souls not died in vain Reincarnate still in me, live again Someone to save me Something to save me from myself To bring salvation To exorcise this hell (x4)

I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time 'Cause at five o'clock they take me to the gallows pole The sands of time for me are running low Running low, yeah When the priest comes to read me the last rites Take a look through the bars at the last sights Of a world that has gone very wrong for me Can it be that there's some sort of error? Hard to stop the surmounting terror Is it really the end, not some crazy dream? Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming It's not easy to stop from screaming But words escape me when I try to speak Tears fall, but why am I crying? After all, I'm not afraid of dying Don't I believe that there never is an end? As the guards march me out to the courtyard Somebody cries from a cell, "God be with you" If there's a God, why has He let me go? As I walk, my life drifts before me And though the end is near, I'm not sorry Catch my soul, it's willing to fly away Mark my words, believe my soul lives on Don't worry now that I have gone I've gone beyond to seek the truth When you know that your time is close at hand Maybe then you'll begin to understand Life down here is just a strange illusion Yeah, yeah, yeah Hallowed be thy name Yeah, yeah, yeah Hallowed be thy name Yeah
