in the middle of a gunfight
in the center of a restaurant
they say come with your arms raised high
well they're never gonna get me
like a bullet through a flock of doves
to wage this war against your faith in me
your life will never be the same
on your mother's eyes say a prayer
say a prayer
-chorus:
now
but i can't
and i don't know
how we're just two men as god had made us
well i can't
well i can
too much too late
or just not enough of this
pain in my heart for your dying wish
i'll kiss your lips again
:chorus-
they all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost
my cellmate's a killer
they make me do pushups in drag
but nobody cares if you're losing yourself
am i losing myself?
and well i miss my mom
will they give me the chair?
or lethal injection?
or swing from a rope if you dare
oh nobody knows all the trouble i seen
-chorus-
to your room
what they ask of you
they make you want to see(?)
how long
well i dont remember
i remember
do you have the keys to the hotel?
life is but a dream for the dead
and well i can't go down by myself
but i'll go down with my friends
take it like a man
