When sadness fills your heartAnd sorrow hides the longing to be freeWhen things go wrong each dayYou fix your mind to 'scape your miseryYour troubled young lifeHad made you turnTo a needle of deathHow strange, your happy wordsHave ceased to bring a smile from everyoneHow tears have filled the eyesOf friends that you once had walked amongYour troubled young lifeHad made you turnTo a needle of deathOne grain of pure white snowDissolved in blood spread quickly to your brainIn peace your mind withdrawsYour death's so near your soul can't feel no painYour troubled young lifeHad made you turnTo a needle of deathYour mother stands a'cryin'While to the earth your body's slowly castYour father stands in silenceCaressing every young dream of the pastYour troubled young lifeHad made you turnTo a needle of deathThrough ages, man's desiresTo free his mind, to release his very soulHas proved to all who liveThat death itself is freedom for evermoreAnd your troubled young lifeWill make you turnTo a needle of death
