All this pain I'm crying about
that tears my heart
and rips it out

I need to know
who to blame
someone on whom
I can throw the shame

For all these tears
and bleeding scars
For all my hurt and
this broken heart

When all is lost
who can I point
my fingers at in rage

And damn to hell
for blackest sin
til end comes to this age

I turn my pleading gaze
from sky to sea
for some guilty soul

But find
no one
but

me.
