I've held the hand of God And I've sang the Devil's song And when it comes my time No tears are gonna fall But some will light the fire And some will mourn the one Left longing for the ire Of their departed son Oh lord have mercy, thank God you're gone Here's to the end, thank God you're gone They finally shoved you in the box They could never fit you in An empty cell forever locked So much for best intentions But some will load the gun And some will hone the knife Some will raise the fist As they recall your life Oh lord have mercy, thank God you're gone Here's to the end, thank God you're gone (??) ready for some luck Ready for some love(?) Thank God you're gone You're gone I've held the hand of God And I've sang the Devil's song You'll never erase the past or regain what's lost You're finally gone Oh lord have mercy, thank God you're gone Here's to the end, thank God you're Thank God you're gone So far gone
