lyrics

I've had a hard time trudging to find my fortune
It's been two weeks and I have not seen,
One living soul, though the vultures argue over,
Former travelers of this road

I met an old man, harp on his back, blood on his lips
And he said son, I'm done, but have I
Got a deal for you
The power to make people whole, someone new
And all that I ask in return, is the tiniest
Little piece of your soul
To make me whole before I leave
To sleep in never ending dreams

So now that you have, a spirit shy of complete
You'll know what notes to play
What words to say, and most importantly
In just exactly the right way

You can rest easy, this burden is nothing to me
I'll carry it always, breaking this sad
Circle of tragedies, and I'll let you know
Just a few more things before you go

Suzanne loved you always, but did not miss you one single day
She moved on, found a man, settled down, and had kids right away
You spent your days just as well as you could
Now drift off right here no longer misunderstood
