Текст песни The Ballad of Jane Doe - Annapantsu

Some might say we're released
Pushing daisies, deceased
But we all know the worms must be fed

There's just one lingering fear
Oh, my soul, is it here?
Or is it rotting somewhere with my head?

Oh, my soul (dum-dum-da)
Oh, my soul (dum-dum-da)
Oh, my soul (dum-dum-da)
Oh, my soul

Ooh-ooh-ooh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-oh
Aah-aah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Oh, no soul and no name
And no story, what a shame
Cruel existence was only a sham

Oh, Saint Peter, let me in
You must know where I've been
Won't you tell me at last who I am?

Who I am (dum-dum-da)
Who I am (dum-dum-da)
Who I am (dum-dum-da)
Who I am

Ooh-ooh-ooh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-oh
Aah-aah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

And from the ground beneath my feet
I hear the anguish of the street
(A choir never complete)
And like an old forgotten tune
A song that no one knows
Forgot how it goes
Just John and me
Forever eternally, Jane Doe

And I'm asking "Why, Lord?"
If this is how I die, Lord
Why be left with no family and no friends? (Ooh)
I've got no celebration
Just this consolation
Time eats all his children in the end

Aah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

A melody floats through the air
When silence falls, does no one care? (Does anyone care?)

Another sad and forgotten tune
Another song that no one knows
Forgot how it goes
Just John and me
Forever eternally, Jane Doe

And she's asking "Why, Lord?" (Oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why?)
This is no way to die, Lord
No one to sing, no one to sigh
Now that's all said and done
Isn't there anyone to tell me who I am? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
No singing songs of celebration (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ooh)
Just a story of speculation

Like John, I'll be eternally a forgotten name
Some lost refrain, just "Jane"
Jane Doe!

A melody floats through the air
When silence falls, does no one care?
Jane Doe!
