Didn't Know the Signs

All the world keeps turning And the fire keeps burning But I can't help to hate myself Look at me such a strange man Always in a rush with no plans But I can't expect you to know why He calls to the moon He wails in the night For he didn't know the signs Though I've lived a life of plenty All that I've owned has left me And I can't help to feel ashamed Lend an ear if willing I traded my soul for gold shillings And now it is time for me to die He calls to the moon He wails in the night For he didn't know the signs All the world keeps turning And the fire keeps burning But I can't help to hate myself He calls to the moon He wails in the night For he didn't know the signs He calls to the moon He wails in the night Isn't he a lot like you and I?
