Not for a day, not for a while You're all alone, you're never satisfied Oh, you've been dreaming for a hundred years So you began to understand That your lifetime is running Through your hands Who will forgive you for this trail of tears? There you go on Someone to love, easy to find Fulfill your heart with blood of any kind Unlink the chain before it strangles you There you go Hearing voices and noises again There you stand Back in time where it all once began There you are, in vain After a shock, time to recompose An old bleeding heart So mistreated and abused Who will forgive you for this trail of tears? There you go Hearing voices and noises again There you stand Back in time where it all once began There you are, my friend
