Here the singer outlines his gradual awareness of the relationship to himself and to his soul, his everlasting self - his gradual awareness that he is evil and good at the same time and that he has not one soul but three - Spiritus destined for Heaven, Manes destined for Hell and Umbra destined to eternally haunt the earth. |
Made no decision about my birth Seems to me I only came to have to die Pushed out through a woman's legs Not asked - the reason why When I began all I did was eat and drink
Three parts to my soul
While I was growing up incredibly concerned
Three parts to my soul
The more I lived, to love caress and tend
Three parts to my soul
