Paroles de At The Last

It's a shame that some must go without,
I was no fool to think it might be my problem.
Needy hands were reaching out,
I kept my spare change and my pride.
And a tight fist.
(And a tight fist!)

Now at the last,
Everything has changed in this pale light
That death has cast on all I've done.
On all I've done.

I'm a good man on the whole.
Who can blame me for the guilt of another one?
I never killed, I never stole.
A small indulgence now and then -- so what of it?
I'm a good man.
I'm a good man.
Am I a good man?
I thought I was...

The rewards of this life now count for naught.
My body soon buried and left to rot.
Good times gone -- how quickly -- an honest past.
My God, now I see how I've squandered each and every breath!
Everything has changed in this pale light,
And looking back, I am undone.
I am undone
