In the middle of a gun fight In the center of a restaurant They say, "Come with your arms raised high"
Well they're never gonna get me And like a bullet through a flock of doves To wage this war against your faith in me
Your life will never be the same On your mother's eyes say a prayer, say a prayer
Now, but I can't, and I don't know How we're just two men as God had made us Well I can't, well I can
Too much, too late or just not enough of this Pain in my heart for your dying wish I'll kiss your lips again
They all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost My cell mate's a killer, they make me do push-ups in drag But nobody cares if you're losing yourself, am I losing myself?
And well I miss my mom, will they give me the chair? Or lethal injection or swing from a rope, if you dare Oh, nobody knows all the trouble I've seen
Now, but I can't, and I don't know How we're just two men as God had made us Well I can't, well I can
Too much, too late or just not enough of this Pain in my heart for your dying wish I'll kiss your lips again
To your room, what they ask of you Will make you want to say So long, but I don't remember Why remember you?
Do you have the keys to the hotel? 'Cause I'm gonna set this bastard motherfucker on fire, fire
Life is but a dream for the dead And well I, I won't go down by myself But I'll go down with my friends
