I'm still mortal I ***** I **** I eat I stink I try I fear And I burst out in tears I fail I succeed I yearn to be freed What is life What is love How deep can I be My soul is on fire with thoughts of desire I long to be near you Yet feel I'm beneath you I'm still mortal I **** I drink I do Before I think I **** At best But that's all in jest I'm good I'm bad I'm terribly sad I'm tired and weary I don't see things so clearly Forgive me my sins I've done terrible things But this life takes its toll And we all make mistakes I'm still mortal.

I'm still mortal
I'm still mortal I ***** I **** I eat I stink I try I fear And I burst out in tears I fail I succeed I yearn to be freed What is life What is love How deep can I be My soul is on fire with thoughts of desire I long to be near you Yet feel I'm beneath you I'm still mortal I **** I drink I do Before I think I **** At best But that's all in jest I'm good I'm bad I'm terribly sad I'm tired and weary I don't see things so clearly Forgive me my sins I've done terrible things But this life takes its toll And we all make mistakes I'm still mortal.
