To prove his innocence
He'll take it to the grave
In his deliverance
Somebody could be saved
And the world he could not face
Prayin' for a state of grace
He was looking for a sign
He was selfish and unkind
Gave his life to the divine
Inside his caravan
He pulled the shutters down
And will he ever see
What all the others found?
He stood upon the roof
Get closer to the sky
Condition critical
No time to wonder why
But his eyes they could not see
Heading for a tragedy
He was looking for a sign
He was selfish and unkind
Gave his life to the divine
And the world he could not face
Prayin' for a state of grace
He was looking for a sign
He was selfish and unkind
Gave his life
He was looking for a sign
He was selfish and unkind
Gave his life to the divine
He gave his life
