Tekst piosenki:
I have lived a hundred lives
and I have died a dozen times
but the reaper hasn’t caught me yet
though his scythe is often at my neck
and I have learned a trick or two
though I’ve forgotten quite a few
and might have told a hundred lies
twice as many half as true
Oh I have been an idiot
missing some key ingredient
and waiting as I fail to rise
never guessing what it meant
I lived adrift on luck and looks
‘till hungry hearts struck hard and took
and made afraid of what I’d done
my skills were nil, my friends were none
I could not trust my empty mind
these stolen holes of space and time
the faces, newly strange, I’d find
none of them resembling mine
Oh I have been an idiot
missing some key ingredient
and waiting as I fail to rise
never asking what it meant
I barely cared, and rarely tried
to find some reason I should fight
but in my hand and at my side
you, my heart, my arm did guide
for I had been your long lost twin
closer than a second skin
and now I am alone again
wiser than I’ve never been
Oh I have been an idiot
missing some key ingredient
but now I know how I will rise
oh how on earth could I forget?
knowing you has made me wise
now I am not an idiot!
