The Ballad of Jane Doe lyrics
[JANE]
Some might say we're released
Pushing daises, deceased
But we all know the worms must be fed
There's just one lingering fear
Oh my soul, is it here?
Or is it rotting somewhere with my head?
Oh my soul
Oh my soul
Oh my soul
Oh my soul
Oh no soul, and no name
And no story, what a shame
Cruel existence was only a sham?
Oh Saint Peter, let me in!
You must know where I've been
Won't you tell me at last who I am?
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
And from the ground, beneath my feet
I hear the anguish of the street
[CHOIR]
A choir never complete
[JANE]
And like an old forgotten tune
A song that no one knows...
Forgot how it goes
Just John and me
Forever eternally, Jane Doe
And I'm askin' why lord
If this is how I die, Lord
Why be left with no family
and no friends?
I've got no celebration
just this consolation
time eats all his children
in the end
A melody floats through the air
When silence falls, does no one care?
[CHOIR]
Does anyone care?
[JANE]
Another sad, forgotten tune
Another song that no one knows
So that's how it goes!
Just John and me
Forever eternally, Jane Doe
[CHOIR]
And she's asking "Why, Lord?"
[JANE]
Why, oh why, oh why, oh why?
[CHOIR]
"This is no way to die, Lord!"
[JANE}
No one to sing, no one to sigh
Now that all is said and done
Isn't there anyone to tell me who I am?
[CHOIR]
No singing songs of celebration
Just this speculation
[JANE]
Like John I'll be eternally
A forgotten name, some lost refrain
Just "Jane"
Jane..
Doe
[CHOIR]
A melody floats through the air
When silence falls, does no one care?
Jane
Doe
