The Crime Of Being Me Lyrics - Singles - Catman Cohen

On a brutal winter night 

We stood bravely side by side 

Against snowballs launched our way 

By the enemies of our kind 

In a graveyards mourning light 

We both choked up, cried and cried 

As the angels lifted him 

On Deaths gloomy wings of flight 

And you declared me dead, my brother 

For the crime of being me 

For all the faults I have 

Well, I still cannot believe 

That you declared me dead, my brother 

For the crime of being me 

For all the faults I have 

Well, I still cannot believe 

And my only wish for you, my brother 

Is someday youll understand 

How it feels to be a corpse 

Walking amongst your fellow man 

In the haze of our carefree youth 

We both wildly joked and joked 

About wicked ironies 

Of the enemies of Truth 

Beside a pool so crystal blue 

Really both had hoped 

That good luck would fill our lives 

In everything we would pursue 

But you declared me dead, my brother 

For the crime of being me 

For all the faults I have 

Well, I still cannot believe 

That you declared me dead, my brother 

For the crime of being me 

For all the faults I have 

Well, I still cannot believe 

And my only wish for you, my brother 

Is someday you ll understand 

How it feels to be a corpse 

Walking amongst your fellow man 

And yet the pain has made me strong 

I forgive you, youre my brother
