Author's note: This is the translation of a Dutch song I heard, called 'Ik red me wel'. The original song belongs to the group 'Kommil Foo'. This isn't my point of view. I don't mean to offend anyone with this. You are not aquired to like it. It was something I felt like I should do after I heard about what happened to Xians suck, with whom I had a fairly interesting conversation some time ago. It doesn't have anything to do with her either, but... I don't know. I just felt like it.
I feel they're standing in the room
I hear them pray,
Very devout
Curtains closed, candles alight
For today,
Grandfather dies
My youngest daughter softly cries
Bible opened in her lap
My sons smoke the entire night
Grey hours, heavy with doubt
And they're begging to forgive my sin
And they're praying for my skin
For they fear my soul will burn forever in Hell
Well, I'll get by
I've believed my whole life long
I couldn't believe in anything
Never made a promise to anyone
Took everything I could lay my hands on
And they're begging to forgive my sin
And they're praying for my skin
For they fear my soul will burn forever in Hell
Well, I'll get by
And if there exists a God
A God who thinks and decides
Who, after short consideration,
Sweeps me off the table with the lot,
Then, yeah, then…
I'll get by
I don't knock on the doors of Heaven
I'll get by
I go around the back
I'll get by
I've never bothered about anything, that I lack
I'll get by
So St. Peter I bribe
I'll get by
At Jesus' table I shuffle along, bent low
I'll get by
Disguised as father Damian I go
I'll get by
I already let my beard grow
I'll get by
I put on my leprosy suit
I'll get by…
