Fait Accompli
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Nearness of death hangs like the storm clouds
over my head, the blood on my hands Wrong time at wrong place
Why Am I here
I can't explain what happened
Can it be real
See what I don't have to see
it changes my plans
One senseless accident
no fall from grace My destiny is kind of strange to me / alea iacta est
Murder or witness, blind eyes to see
New crown of thorns adorns my head / I'm innocent
Blood runs cold and sky is burning red
Bridge:
Where is my truth, where is the justice
I ask in my mind, God tell me why
Reflection of my past life
Do I have much time Chorus:
I see the light in the end of the line
beyond the border of night
Hope's still alive
I trust forever till the final moment of my life
Cold of this cell takes my breath away
Have I right to live for one more day
Who'll give the helping hand and give me strength to survive
Is here a chance to win this useless fight Bridge
Chorus
No one will bow before my throne of pain
Desperation surrounds me again
Laughing of death I still hear in my ears
Fait Accompli, who'll return all these wasted years
