after the inquest - raven (prog rock) lyrics

after the inquest, the coroner spoke
his eyes were full of tears
must the only case i’ve had like this
in thirty*seven years
it’s a suicide of a very strange kind
this is what i’ve found
he k!lled himself while the balance of his mind
was temporarily quite sound

and, lord, won’t you have a little mercy?
don’t you know we’re going the same way too?
if you don’t do something pretty soon
there won’t be no more use for you
one good man gone down already
before his three score years and ten had flown
we need a hand to keep us steady
we just can’t make it alone

i can quite understand it
sometimes i feel the same way too
i suppose it must have been the only thing
a man like that could reasonably do
but, oh my god, what state is this we’re in
to make a man go sane?
oh why shouldn’t i be my brother’s keeper?
for who is abel and who among us is cain?
and, friends, won’t you gather round me now?
we’ll keep each other from the cold
we don’t have much in the way of hope
onto which we can hold
better not to think about your dreams
best not to think about anything at all
just look at the man and listen to the screams
of those that know that there’s nowhere to fall
