The Crime of Being Me - Catman Cohen

The Crime of Being Me Lyrics

On a brutal winter night
We stood bravely side by side
Against snowballs launched our way
By the enemies of our kindIn a graveyards mourning light
We both choked up, cried and cried
As the angels lifted him
On Deaths gloomy wings of flightAnd you declared me dead, my brother
For the crime of being me
For all the faults I have
Well, I still cannot believeThat you declared me dead, my brother
For the crime of being me
For all the faults I have
Well, I still cannot believeAnd my only wish for you, my brother
Is someday youll understand
How it feels to be a corpse
Walking amongst your fellow manIn the haze of our carefree youth
We both wildly joked and joked
About wicked ironies

Of the enemies of TruthBeside a pool so crystal blue
Really both had hoped
That good luck would fill our lives
In everything we would pursueBut you declared me dead, my brother
For the crime of being me
For all the faults I have
Well, I still cannot believeThat you declared me dead, my brother
For the crime of being me
For all the faults I have
Well, I still cannot believeAnd my only wish for you, my brother
Is someday you ll understand
How it feels to be a corpse
Walking amongst your fellow manAnd yet the pain has made me strong
I forgive you, youre my brother
