Petition

I prefer to think of him as a man of many means

Of powers extreme, exposed to the extreme

Nature so determined, he may never change his mind

The only possible excuse for pretending to be blind

Petition for a life unknown

To all my predecessors shown, no, oh, oh

Petition for a life unknown

To all my predecessors shown, no, oh, oh

I can’t know the why of this, his motives are mysterious

His anger extreme, exposed to the extreme

Has he a hidden past?

My memories they don’t go back enough to remember what I’m supposed to lack

Petition for a life unknown

To all my predecessors shown, no, oh, oh

Petition for a life unknown

To all my predecessors shown, no, oh, oh

To those who’ve never had you keep coming back,

You take, take, take away ‘till the very last

To those who’ve never had you keep coming back,

You take, take, take away ‘till the very last

Petition for a life unknown

To all my predecessors shown, no, oh, oh

Petition for a life unknown

To all my predecessors shown, no, oh, oh

Petition for a life unknown

To all my predecessors shown, no, oh, oh

Petition for a life unknown

To all my predecessors shown, no, oh, oh
