Their Dark Robes

Вступление

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

I'm so tired of feeling this way all the time

Running, winded from the sickness in my mind

and it's a dark and it's an ugly thing, I know

that we all have to face down some time, I suppose

[Chorus]

So let me go

cause you can't save me

when they drag me from my bed in their dark robes

aw, let me go

and some day maybe

I'll return a stronger man, for all I know, for all I know

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]

So wrap me up, babe, in white linens 'til I cannot see or speak

so I will not hear them coming when my mortal will is weak

cause I feel them coming on like jackals preying on the shape I'm in

Tugging at my weathered heartstrings Tearing at my tired skin

[Chorus]

So let me go

cause you can't save me

when they drag me from my bed in their dark robes

aw, let me go

and some day maybe

I'll return a stronger man, for all I know, for all I know

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]

I have wronged those who might love me

I have maimed my fellow man

I have stolen, lied, and cheated

for reasons that I don't understand

But if I must pay for all my wicked deeds tenfold

Let me die with a clear conscience

when I'm five hundred years old

[Chorus]

So let me go

cause you can't save me

when they drag me from my bed in their dark robes

aw, let me go

and some day maybe

I'll return a stronger man, for all I know, for all I know

I'll return a stronger man, for all I know, for all know
