lyrics
I I I I was so Jedi
I shut off my mind
I thought if there was a way to not accept the curse
I thought maybe if I could not hear the words
So I went all Jedi
I shut off my mind, yeah
Now I wander icy streets
Of a dark unknown city
Nothing in my pockets
But a cold, metal key
To a life
Stripped from me
In this town so changed by time
It’s no longer mine
I wander and I wait
I I I I was so Stoic
I shut off my mind
I thought if there was a way to not accept the curse
I thought maybe if I could not hear the words
So I went all Jedi
I shut off my mind, yeah
I thought my only hope
Was refusing to hear
What I don’t know can’t hurt me
Now I’ve lost my only hope
Of knowing this curse that I bear
Oh I know it’ll hurt me
My friend
Oh I know it’ll hurt me
This is the end
(Sirens)
He knew me from a time
We neither could place
But I, too, recognized his youthful face
Oh why did I ask him directions?
Not knowing, why did I involve him?
I got a feeling and backed away
But it was too late
He walked away wailing an old man’s cry
For all his lost years
I I I I was so Jedi
I shut off my mind
I I I I was so Stoic
I shut off my mind
I I I I was so Jedi
I shut off my mind
