i went through too many people
i went through heaven and hell
i went from rome to baghdad
too many stories to tell
what do you mean by that?
mercy is all you get
do what you won't regret
freedom's your self-respect
what do you mean by that?
i lived through too many aeons
i've risen up and i fell the fall
i have been thre and i have done that
i've seen it all and all
what do you mean by that?
mercy is all you get
do what you won't regret
freedom's your self-respect
what do you mean by that?
my time is running like water
deeper i dive and deeper
last of nine lives of the cat
i saved my soul for the reaper
what do you mean by that?
(i saved my soul for the reaper)
mercy is all you get
(deeper i dive and deeper)
do what you won't regret
(i saved my soul for the reaper)
freedom's your self-respect
what do you mean by that?
