Welcome & goodbye
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.
I just came back from hell
where I suddenly ran into some friends
They had built me a ladder that led me back on the right track
They appeared out of blue and they walked me until I was safely home
They saw me as I am. No questions, only helping hands
On the other side I saw many fingers pointing at me
There was a wall between us to give me some sort of a shelher
I saw them as they were, eyes burning, full of pure hate
They spoke no words to me and I saw them turn their backs on me
Not my time to go
It was my time to show
This is me, stripped and weak
This is me, unmasked and frail
This is me, take it or leave it
This is me, welcome and good bye
The devil looked me and his slaves called him by my name
They had powders and needles and they had everything
The devil said: give me my medicine
and I saw them put a needle into his arm
There was no fire, only blackness as far as it was possible to see
It wasn't my first timethere, I told myself I've seen this all before
It only takes one step and you can kiss your ass good bye
It wasn't meant to last, maybe it was meant to make me see
I can see myself in the mirror again
and recognize true friendship
