song lyrics Gideon s Trap lyrics
And so the coffins all were lowered, And all my friends were dead And all there s left is God s forgiveness, That is just what the preacher said The sky was turning grey with anger, I walked alone along the way God only knew what s on my shoulders, And *you are lost* I heard him say But on my way to find an answer, Out from nowhere a demon came He was a hunchback, I was frightened, I said: Go back to Notre Dame I have some things to say, he answered, I know your troubles yes my son You carry heavy loads upon you, I tell you: The fun has just begun And so he left me disappointed, A deadly light came out from west I heard a sound of distant thunder, I kept thinking: Who knows best I know my life, I know my living, My will is given me at birth And I can do just what I want to, Then I was swallowed by the earth I landed with my feet on fire, I stood before my masters throne He filled my mind with soft desire, He taught me: Everyone s alone And that is where I end my story, And all there s left for me to say Is: See your death is softly coming, And watch the winters fade away song lyrics
