lyrics

WHEN THE TIME COMES

I had a long long road ahead of me
If i could just outrun the past
Just another age old lesson
I hadn't learned

I thought i'd see you here
Cause i could swear that this is hell
But maybe every demon
Doesn't get a turn

And at the end
Who we are is not how we burn

I left you at your wake in Kansas City
I put them in the ground in New Orleans
IF it takes a killer to guard against a killer
I should have been the man of your dreams
But I was too late
I was too late

I don't know why I kept looking
You were gone as gone could be
But in every mirror
I could see your face

I can't forget your lying thing
A couple days after I lost you
And your mother sobbing through
Amazing Grace

Dead echoes winding through
Our empty place

I hit them hard and found them wanting
I hit the border going ninety miles an hour
For all this violence it should amount to something
But if it ever really was within my power
I was too late
I was too late

And I pray to god
When I face the firing squad
They aim as well me

I was too late
I was too late
And now I'm paying

When the time comes they read me off my sins
I don't expect i'll see another sunrise
They don't seem as good without you anyway
If I get a last request
I'd like to sing your name until I starve
or share a last cigarette, that'd be okay
