<poem>Why was I ever born and why did | <poem>Why was I ever born and why did God make me? | ||
He must’ve been high when he dropped me down here | He must’ve been high when he dropped me down here | ||
All of my neighbors have shut off their porch lights | All of my neighbors have shut off their porch lights | ||
Line 52: | Line 52: | ||
It’s dark enough to see the stars | It’s dark enough to see the stars | ||
I wonder who and where we are | I wonder who and where we are | ||
As the moon goes round the Earth | As the moon goes 'round the Earth | ||
I see it all from where I perch | I see it all from where I perch | ||
It’s dark enough to see the stars | It’s dark enough to see the stars | ||
Line 59: | Line 59: | ||
And as the years pass by it grows | And as the years pass by it grows | ||
When it’s high noon | When it’s high noon I go blind from the light beams | ||
I go blind from the light beams | Refracting off snow like the swings of a sword | ||
Refracting off snow | When the night falls, I am grateful for blackness | ||
It blankets my sadness; it’s my lone reward | |||
When the night falls | |||
I am grateful for blackness | |||
It blankets my sadness | |||
It’s dark enough to see the stars | It’s dark enough to see the stars | ||
I wonder who and where we are | I wonder who and where we are | ||
As the moon goes round the Earth | As the moon goes 'round the Earth | ||
I see it all from where I perch | I see it all from where I perch | ||
It’s dark enough to see the stars | It’s dark enough to see the stars | ||
Line 78: | Line 74: | ||
I don’t want to die alone | I don’t want to die alone | ||
Lord, I’m running out of hope | But, Lord, I’m running out of hope | ||
I don’t want to die alone | I don’t want to die alone | ||
Lord, I’m running out of hope | Lord, I’m running out of hope | ||
Line 84: | Line 80: | ||
It’s dark enough to see the stars | It’s dark enough to see the stars | ||
I wonder who and where we are | I wonder who and where we are | ||
As the moon goes round the Earth | As the moon goes 'round the Earth | ||
I see it all from where I perch | I see it all from where I perch | ||
It’s dark enough to see the stars | It’s dark enough to see the stars | ||
I wonder who and where we are | I wonder who and where we are | ||
This solitude is all I know | This solitude is all I know | ||
And as the years pass by it grows | And as the years pass by it grows</poem> | ||
