Now one fell asleep in the street
And he never woke up
Now one died in pieces in his bed
With a mouthful of gold
And one who threatened me long ago, I saw him
Melt in the bright light of day
And one laid to rest in a field under starlings and crows.
I've been wandering sideways
I've stared straight into the sun
Still, I don't know why you're dying
Long before your time has come
Your time has come
Now one took some bullets in the chest in a deal gone wrong
One got a little too depressed and he went and jumped the gun
One got shot right in the face and he somehow survived
But he doesn't know my name or who I am
And I'm not surprised.
I've been wandering sideways
I've stared straight into the sun
Still, I don't know why you're dying
Long before your time has come
