These walls are thick with remorse Thinking of all doors Ive closed Vivid dreams like movie scenes Vanishing like raindrops into sea Once made a plan of hit and run Big cash, big dreams, big everything Bought a gun and stole a car But crashed so my plans never got far Chorus: Done too many things I cant undo Now the judge says My time is due Im a man of constant sorrow Got only yesterdays, no tomorrows If time was a possession to own Would hold it and never let go My lifes a river drying out A fading shadow in the night Chorus: repeat Bridge: Im a man Who as a boy didnt see Those yesterdays Were all up to me Guess the taste Of fists and biting whips Failed to bring Out the best in me Chorus: repeat Gospel of a fool Lyric: I dont wanne fall like soldiers Dont wanne be something in the news I wanne play like careless children Like I used to do with you I wanne sleep beneath the willows And focus on something good Only wanne bridge the distance
That lingers between me and you Pre-chorus: Its been said before but I say it again; Silence can be a deadly weapon or a friend Chorus: See them bullets fly like words Words that hold no meaning Words that bears no truth Words that break all rules Like a gospel of a fool Dont wanne be just a shadow Wanne be strong, free and true Cant stand to see us lose all meaning Like everyone else seems to do Pre-chorus: Its been said before but I say it again; Same beginnings can have different ends Chorus: See them bullets fly like words Words that hold no meaning Words that bears no truth Words that break all rules Like a gospel of a fool Bridge: If we could see were pieces of one puzzle Where everyone belong Wed find smoother ways to reach each other Like rhymes in a song Chorus: See them bullets fly like words Words that hold no meaning Words that bears no truth Words that break all rules Like a gospel of a fool
