I tumble over stone and weed
 As I wander over human wasteland
 'cause I've become a piece of wood
 I'm drifting into nothingness to slowly drown

 Please have mercy upon me
 When I set out for the sun
 Have mercy on my very soul
 In the sunlight I drown
 In the sunlight men like me drown

 I'm stuck here like a stiff on earth
 I steer my ship on oceans dried out
 Spirit of tomorrow I'll do anything
 To please you if you set my wreck ashore

 What kind of a place
 What kind of a place
 Have I found, have I found
 In sunlight I drown
