Forty Days - Toh Kay

And it's been forty days

I've tried forty ways

You will never quite leave your sins behind

They'll haunt you

Taunt you until the day you die

You will never really go

You'll just think about it much but you'll

Need to know how the story ends

So you'll sit around

Even though you should just go

Tell your friends what you have heard

Show them all the lies unlearned

And when you really go

You will really know you were

Never meant for earth

What's it worth

If we're going to break it down

With any logic it's absurd

And no matter where we go

We are not alone

When the silence turns to cries of "Why "

What a way to begin: we inherit sin

And nobody's going to quench

Your thirst when the well runs dry

And nobody's going to hold

Your hand on the day you die

I've tasted seven sins so they won't let me in

I knock knock knock until

My knuckles are bruised and raw

Stuck in the middle with

My blood in a puddle on the floor

We made our beds we'll judge ourselves

And only then and there will we

Disappear to our final resting place

What a waste

So many decent people at the gates

And no matter who you know you will be alone

When the silence turns to cries of "Why "

What a way to begin: we inherit sin

And nobody's going to quench your

Thirst when the well runs dry

And nobody's going to hold your

Hand on the day you die

And no matter who you know you will be alone

When the silence turns to cries of "Why "

What a way to begin: we inherit sin

And nobody's going to quench

Your thirst when the well runs dry

Well runs dry

And nobody's going to hold

Your hand on the day you die
