Lyrics
The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg (Murray/Harris)
Let me tell you 'bout my life
Let me tell you 'bout my dreams
Let me tell you 'bout the things that happened
Always real to me
Let me tell you of my hope
Of my need to reach to the sky
Let me take you on an awkward journey
Let me tell you why
Let me tell you why
Why should these curses be laid upon me?
I won't be forgiven 'til I can break free
What did I do to deserve all this guilt?
Paid for my sins, for the sale of my soul
Demons are trapped all inside of my head
My hopes have gone, I reach for heaven from hell
My sins are many, my guilt is too heavy
The pressure of knowing, of hiding what I know
I'm able to see things, things I don't want to see
The lives of a thousand souls, weigh heavy down on me
I know they're crying for help, reaching out
The burden of them will take me down as well
The sin of a thousand souls not died in vain
Reincarnates to let me live again
Chorus: (x2)
Someone to save me
Something to save me from myself
To bring salvation
To exorcise this hell
2nd Chorus:
Someone to save me
Something to save me from my hell
Our destination
Awake from this nightmare
Chorus:
Someone to save me
Something to save me from myself
To bring salvation
