Overburdened

Disturbed · Ten Thousand Fists [2005]

[spoken, with echoes]

Fate is so unkind

Now I should have known

Blind leading the blind

Reaping what I've sown

If it all amounts to nothing,

Why? Why am I standing in this line?



Hell is still overburdened

I must stand and wait in line

I may never know for certain when will be my time

How was I considered evil?

Vengeance taken in this life

Someone granted me reprieval

decades spent in strife



Led to nothing

Repeated in my mind

Led to nothing

If only I was born another time



Hell is still overburdened

I must stand and wait in line

Hell is still overburdened

How have I been, some determined malign?



It's the closing of the curtain

In the play that was my life

Countless chapters left unopened, tragedies inside

I was Fighting for a reason

Holy blessed homicide

Seems I have committed treason

All I've sacrificed



Led to nothing

Repeated in my mind

Led to nothing

If only I was born another time



Hell is still overburdened

I must stand and wait in line

Hell is still overburdened

How have I been, some determined malign?

Hell is still overburdened

I must stand and wait in line

Hell is still overburdened

How have I been, some determined malign?



Fate is so unkind

Now I should have known

Blind leading the blind

Reaping what I've sown

If it all amounts to nothing

Why, then, am I standing in this line?



Hell is still overburdened

I must stand and wait in line

Hell is still overburdened

How have I been, some determined malign?

Hell is still overburdened

I must stand and wait in line

Hell is still overburdened

How have I been, some determined malign?
