The Story

If you had just one chance 

To make them understand 

What words - would you choose 

 

If your time has run out 

Facing the end of your life

On that day - What remains to be said

 

You don't need a church 

To end up in hell

It's easy - I made one right here 

 

And if you wanna - make a statement 

Here's your chance 

 

The final call is on 

The final - call is on

 

This is my tale

This is the way

This is what I would say

This is my tale

This is the way

This is what I can do

 

This is the story 

Life's inventory

Built by hope - and despair 

 

This is my tale

This is the way

This is what I would say

This is my tale

This is the way

This is what I can do

 

This is the story 

Life's inventory

Built by hope - and despair 

A game of life and death

Drums pounding for - the final call

 

Fear the floods

Feel my hands 

And get your break at last

There must be light - somewhere 

Fear the floods 

Feel my hands 

And get a break right now

There must be light ahead

 

In the end 

I could pretend

Breaking bad

Beating hard

Any day

Have your way 

All over again 

Forever away

Anyhow anyday

 

This is my tale

This is the way

This is what I would do

This is my tale

This is the way

This is what I can say

 

This is the story 

Life's inventory

Built by hope - and despair 

This is your story 

Drums pounding for you - the final call
