The Settlement Song – Bachdenkel – letras

At the timeAnd for all that you saidI was someone, I thought, that you knewAll gone, my mindA child I amGive me your eyesTo see the man I seeA strangerPlease take my lifeIt’s all I can giveAll that I have to show for myselfPlease take my lifeLosing my life, I find myselfCloser to you, I know myselfHelp me to know youLosing my lifeChanging my mindHow can I find a way to know you?A stranger I amYou say that you saw me beforeI saw myselfYou say you can help me to help myselfYou say you can helpYou say you can help me to see myselfOh you say you can see I can’t help myselfI can’t help myselfI can’t see myselfWhy don’t you take my life?Why don’t you take my life?Why don’t you take my lifeNow that I know myself?Free from my mind, the child I knewLost in your world, so far from youAnd still a stranger
