Shoot me down, lay me to rest
Time donât wait for no man she said
Pick you religion and hope for the best
Battle lines are drawn in the end
So I go down, oh,
This time it gets harder to breath
So I go down, oh,
This poor world has started to bleed
But I will wait on,
Till I hear your call
And I will break out
When I fear no more
Donât feel uneasy look him dead in the eye
Youâve listened now itâs your time to show
Blow your mind open, with the thought of a lie
Rest easy now thereâs no where to go
So I go down, oh,
This time it gets harder to breath
So I go down, oh,
This poor world has started to bleed
Chorus (x2)
, ,
Donât you hang your hat on a one way street
Foolin yourself with impossible dreams
Donât you fly your flag as the sky still burns
Stand your ground when the cold war comes
So she shut her eyes as the world closed in
Held her breath as the time began
As her heart beat still and her lips run dry
This time you fight or this time you die
Oh for 8 long years she as held this fire
Father time has come and her limps are tired
But for one last time she sheâs the flashes of light
Its hard to believe this life is ending tonight
