Tell Them I Was Here Testo

Testo Tell Them I Was Here

if it comes down to this

if it comes up at all

please tell them...

tell them I was...


once gone, and dearly departed

this world not terribly sparse

and without...

so tell them I was here



please tell them...

tell them I was...



"courage", said the lion,

and patience was a snake
"let's run", says the jackal,

"before it's too late"



I could be dust in God's pocket

or the hair on a rooster's head

I don't know

but tell them I was...



oh, please tell them...

tell them I was here...

oh, please tell them...

tell them I was here...



I'm misinformed

I missed the boat

I miss the mother

to hold me close.

Gone to Hell,

or condescend,

I wanna feel

like it just doesn't end.

When it's time,

I guess we'll know,

and when it's mine,

that'll be the show.



and tell them I was here



oh, please tell them

oh, tell them I was



somebody tell them

tell them I was here



misinformed

missed the boat

I miss the mother

hold me close

gone to help

condescend

I wanna feel

like it just...doesn't end



if it comes up at all...
