If only I found a hole into heaven
I wouldn't have to shovel coal into the great furnace
I've sewn a thousand stitches, I'm blind, the cough tears
My face is old and my joints are stiff
But it's better if we go together
If we simply take day by day
I only wanted to hold my father one last time
I fear my heart is too weak
I'm eternally tormented
I've got all that is mine in a chest
I'm full of adrenaline
I'm eternally tormented
God lets me be eternally tormented
Put yourself in my shoes
Maybe then you'll understand
That they will never lett me in
Into your heaven
Six men and six hands hold up the coffin
No one knows who's next on the list
Soon it's my turn, the evening is past
But no one can tell me of the time to come
But it's better if we go together
If we simply take day by day
I only wanted to hold my father one last time
I fear my heart is too weak
I'm eternally tormented
I've got all that is mine in a chest
I'm full of adrenaline
I'm eternally tormented
God lets me be eternally tormented
Put yourself in my shoes
Maybe then you'll understand
That they will never lett me in
Into your heaven
