Mark me with Fear and Trembling
|
Send someone else instead
|
I know my world is ending
|
I can't repay my debt
|
|
Can I carry such a heavy burden?
|
Can I move when I am paralyzed?
|
I see a fire behind a heavy curtain
|
I lean in closer and I close my eyes
|
|
Kiss the coals; breathe in smoke
|
And I say, "Here I am, send me."
|
Lifts my soul, free and so unafraid
|
"Here I am, send me, send me."
|
Free and so unafraid
|
"Here I am, send me."
|
|
Mark me with fire and send me
|
Among the living dead
|
They cannot comprehend me;
|
I watch the sickness spread
|
|
How can they hear me when their hearts are hardened?
|
How can they see me when they close their eyes?
|
So they can tell that I'm an easy target
|
A wooden saw is quite a way to die
|
|
Kiss the coals; breathe in smoke
|
And I say, "Here I am, send me."
|
Lifts my soul, free and so unafraid
|
"Here I am, send me, send me."
|
Free and so unafraid
|
"Here I am, send me."
|
|
"Here I am, send me."
