Don't Know When But a Day is Gonna Come

歌詞

Is it true what I heard about the Son of God? Did he come to save, did he come at all? And if I dried his feet With my dirty hair Would he make me clean again? They say they don't know when but a day is gonna come When there won't be a moon and there won't be a sun; It will just go black It will just go back To the way it was before. I knew a lovely girl with such pretty pride, And every man wanted her and so did I... And so did I, But she up and died In a fit of vanity. Now men with purple hearts carry silver guns And they will kill a man for what his father has done, But what my father did You know it don't mean shit I'm not him. And you think I need some discipline well I've had my share I have been sent to my room, I've been sat in a chair And I held my tongue I didn't plug my ears No I got a good talking to. Now I don't know why but I still try to smile When they talk at me like I'm just a child Well I'm not a child No I am Much younger than that. And now I have read some books and I have grown quite brave If I could just speak up I think I would say That There is no truth There is only you And what you make the truth. So I will just sing my songs and I'll pass a hat, Then I'll leave your town and I'll never look back, No I don't look back Because the road is clear Laid out ahead of me. I'll get home and meet my friends at our favorite bar We'll get some lighter heads for our heavy hearts And we will share a drink Yeah we'll share our fears And they will know how I love them They will know how I love They will know how I love them I am nothing without their love Now I don't know when but a day is gonna come When there won't be a moon and there won't be a sun It will all go black It will all go back To the way it is supposed to be. Is it true what they say about the Son of God? Did he die for us, did he die at all? And if I sold my soul For a bag of gold To you which one of us would be the foolish one? Which one if us would be the fool? Which one if us would be the fool? Which one if us would be the fool? Could you please start explaining? You know I need some understanding. I could do with some explaining, You know I want to understand.
