Mark me with Fear and Trembling
Send someone else instead
I know my world is ending
I can´t repay my debt
Can I carry such a heavy burden?
Can I move when I am paralyzed?
I see a fire behind a heavy curtain
I lean in closer and I close my eyes
Kiss the coals; breathe in smoke
And I say, "Here I am, send me."
Lifts my soul, free and so unafraid
"Here I am, send me, send me."
Free and so unafraid
"Here I am, send me."
Mark me with fire and send me
Among the living dead
They cannot comprehend me;
I watch the sickness spread
How can they hear me when their hearts are hardened?
How can they see me when they close their eyes?
So they can tell that I´m an easy target
A wooden saw is quite a way to die
Kiss the coals; breathe in smoke
And I say, "Here I am, send me."
Lifts my soul, free and so unafraid
"Here I am, send me, send me."
Free and so unafraid
"Here I am, send me."
"Here I am, send me."
Send someone else instead
I know my world is ending
I can´t repay my debt
Can I carry such a heavy burden?
Can I move when I am paralyzed?
I see a fire behind a heavy curtain
I lean in closer and I close my eyes
Kiss the coals; breathe in smoke
And I say, "Here I am, send me."
Lifts my soul, free and so unafraid
"Here I am, send me, send me."
Free and so unafraid
"Here I am, send me."
Mark me with fire and send me
Among the living dead
They cannot comprehend me;
I watch the sickness spread
How can they hear me when their hearts are hardened?
How can they see me when they close their eyes?
So they can tell that I´m an easy target
A wooden saw is quite a way to die
Kiss the coals; breathe in smoke
And I say, "Here I am, send me."
Lifts my soul, free and so unafraid
"Here I am, send me, send me."
Free and so unafraid
"Here I am, send me."
"Here I am, send me."
