I'm covered in dust.
Up and down everywhere is in fog.
My beard is in rust.
How would you know how I'm burning?

I was a young plant, I got tumbled down.
I was a storm, I blew over.
I got tired, I got exhausted.
How would you know what I've been going through?
How would you know what I've been going through?
How would you know what I've been going through?
How would you know what I've been going through?
I came here by breaking stone walls.
I came here by ripping off iron bars.
I came here by setting my life on fire, hey!
I came here by breaking stone walls.
I came here by ripping off iron bars.
I came here by setting my life on fire, hey!
How would you know why I'm escaping?
How would you know why I'm escaping?
The star on skies will now be put out,
my mother now speaks of my name,
I have a lover, now she bleeds.
How would you know why I'm drinking?
How would you know why I'm drinking?
How would you know why I'm drinking?
How would you know why I'm drinking?
I was a fountain, I turned into blood,
I've walked on the sidelines,
I was wrong ah, I got wasted away!
How would you know why I'm remaining silent?
How would you know why I'm remaining silent?
How would you know why I'm remaining silent?
How would you know why I'm remaining silent?
I left tearsdrops behind,
I left a crying wife behind!
I left my heart empty, hey!
I left tearsdrops behind,
I left a crying wife behind!
I left my heart empty, hey!
How would you know whom I'm cross with?
