Seems like a thousand days
And there can be no doubt
His mind was in a haze
And he was so worn out
He lost serenity
Within a fractured life
With no apology
He knew that he was right
But his eyes they did not see
Heading for a tragedyTo prove his innocence
He'll take it to the grave
In his deliverance
Somebody could be savedAnd the world he could not face
Prayin' for a state of grace
He was looking for a sign
He was selfish and unkind
Gave his life to the divineInside his caravan
He pulled the shutters down
And will he ever see
What all the others found?
He stood upon the roof
Get closer to the sky
Condition critical
No time to wonder why
But his eyes they could not see
Heading for a tragedyHe was looking for a sign
He was selfish and unkind
Gave his life to the divineAnd the world he could not face
Prayin' for a state of grace
He was looking for a sign
He was selfish and unkindGave his lifeHe was looking for a sign
He was selfish and unkind
Gave his life to the divineHe gave his life
