Everlasting
Mug shot
Gun shots and sirens
One shot, life defining
One stop, wrong gear
Too fast, Heaven dawned near
One car, there's a wheel, there's a door, there's a white shirt turned red, and there's a beer
Heart beat low, many different causes
Ambulances, beds and many different doses
Arm bandages, busy nurses and dreams of a land where cars are still horses
Sense of displeasure in a room filled with roses
Its almost time
A certain Sir is about to do some knocking
Hush!
Silent
No more talking!
They're conversing funeral policies and coffins
Hush!
Silent
In the silence, no more talking
I guess you answered the door when Mr came knocking
Life's for the living
What have you done with the days you've been given?
See both of us will stop breathing, but not all of us will stop living
Both our hearts will stop ticking, but that don't mean, that both our blood's will stop speaking
Did you write a song, did you paint the pages, is there a part of you that'll live forever?
Did you found a home, did you raise children, did you leave them a treasure?
Did you love, did you ever find peace, will you reach the stairway to heaven?
Did you do your best?
Screams, pants
Push!
Then pop, out comes a man,
With black hair, a bush
And his mother is exhausted but glad
His got his father's eyes
And there he is singing, the most famous song in his new found home, its titled the Cry
How'd you live?
Did you find gold?
Did you ever find your soul?
Or did you sell it at the cross roads?
Did you build a home, why, was it that big that you thought you'd split it into two and call it a divorce?
Did you find a job, were you happy?
Were you kind, I know you weren't always right, did you show remorse
Did you find your purpose, did you know Jesus? or was your destiny swallowed by your demons?
How long do you have little man?
Here's your 5 minutes to try and leave your named etched in the sand
Here's your 5 minutes to try and change the world
