I was born yesterday, 300 years ago

 And there ain't no explanation

for this situation that I'm in

 And I don't want to live forever,

that's just the way it's always been

 All of the children I've had in my life,

 I've watched them grow up and

 grow old and then die
 And my wives, Oh how I've missed my wives

 Why won't the angels come take me away



 Chorus

 Tears drip, cause a quiver in your lip

 When I remember the people that I've left behind

 Tears drip, cause a quiver in your lip

 When I remember the reason that I'm still alive



 Verse 2

 I am ever human being

 It's this curse, It's this gift, It's the blood,

It's the blood And I am the chosen one

 I am the chose one



 Repeat Chorus

 This can't go on forever (forever)

 This can't go on forever

 Somebody take me away

 Somebody take me away



 Repeat Chorus

 Repeat Verse 2
