The day I knew he took that ride
I cursed G-d then apologized
I said, You shed a great disguise
Didn't you like looking out his eyes?
The day I knew that he had left
I never got to go to bed
I hit the wall and I hung my head
I wished it was someone else instead
The day I knew he hopped the fence
I prayed but then said, What's the sense?
There's no omni-benevolence
There's not even a second chance
I cursed his car and I cursed the rain
I searched for a place to place the blame
I must have thought of fifty names
I thought of Hevel I thought of Kayin
The day I knew that he was free
That he paid the price for eternity
I said, Why him? And I said, Why me?
Then I set out to answer these
I found a hint written on a page
In a holy book sticking out half way
From my shelf like a card in Old Maid
But I can't understand why that hand was played
It's not like him
The day I knew I cried and cried
I cursed G-d then I apologized
Maybe the day I shed this great disguise
I'll fully fathom where he lies
