Reprehensible

Each night I lie awake completely alone
A voice is speaking and I tremble
For it's not my own, my own

I can't ignore it, although I try
The intrusive whisper fascinates me
Here's why, here's why

The shadows gather 'round as the voice recites
The secret history of my immortal soul

Indestructible, indefensible, reprehensible
10,000 years of unerasable acts
And permanent facts

The record of my unspeakable crimes
In previous lives, in previous times
Indelibly stains, the pages of history

Indestructible, indefensible, reprehensible
Night after night the voice recites my misdeeds
And puts me to sleep
And tells me I won't remember a thing

When morning comes at last, I rub my eyes
Forgetting everything and thinking
Only of my plans, my plans

The world is spinning 'round and I'm on the top
And nothing in the world can ever make me stop

Indestructible, indefensible, reprehensible
10,000 years of unerasable acts
And permanent facts and only I know
Who's responsible

Indefensible, reprehensible, me
