lyrics

It all went down that summer day
a beautiful sky that turned to gray
so suddenly your life can turn around

no time for any profound thoughts
or final words or time to say “goodbye”

Your heart was racing and your light was fading
embrace the pain and begin the waiting
hoping that your life won't end this way

you closed your eyes to look inside
try to take it all in stride
and welcomed the end

It's not the first time
won't be the last time
you hold the hand of fate
but when your time comes
the beating of the drums
will sound the way back home
as you fall like a stone

Inside your mind a single word
made it all seem so absurd
could it really be this easy to die

so close our eyes and look inside
try to take it all in stride
and wait for the end

It's not the first time
won't be the last time
you hold the hand of fate
but when your time comes
the beating of the drums
will sound the way back home
as you fall like a stone

As you draw your final breath
and open up your arms to death
take the hand that's reaching out to you

then close your eyes and look inside
try to take it all in stride
and know it's the end

It's not the first time
won't be the last time
you hold the hand of fate
but when your time comes
the beating of the drums
will sound the way back home
as you fall like a stone
