Dying On the Last Turn

Shared with Your friends Dying on the last turn I do know that good things have been done Maybe a nation has been saved or a great battle has been braved Could never right all wrongs From the promise of a dead guy We lost on the last turn Shoe fly ...shoe Was buzzing in my ear Knowing you'll be heard Instead of eaten by a bird Exhausting limits of retrieving that picture of feeling new My hands my truth my word my care my love my deja-vu There was a time to dream, A time for fun, A time for Love laying down breathing easy now. Our freedom turned to dust Shoe fly go freeze yourself for a million years Scorpions and rattlesnakes alligators and crocodiles Somewhere from day one What guides your spirit when someone takes it away Power lies in the lust of a nation Spirit from the first breathe of man
