rewrite: BEFORE THE NEXT TEARDROP FALLS ( from the album ANOTHER PLACE ANOTHER TIME)

 

(i'm gonna make it right

before the next teardrop falls

i'm gonna make it right 

before the next siren calls)

gonna have to give me good faith

i have none of my own

scream it at me like a wraith

i'm down to the bone

gonna have to trust me

gonna have to wait and see

from a nut to a tree

grown from the trinity

(i'm gonna make it right

before the next teardrop falls

i'm gonna make it right 

before the next siren calls)

bloodshot eyes, blood shot from a gun

bullet train quick 

red rimmed eyes, pain ties

prophet or losses, take your pick

i speak for the spoken

not long winded, not your token

mail me a letter, ground is getting wetter

scream or scram, move it around

tackle the issue, page the pain

gambled and you fall in the rain

sight goes dim, light goes out 

soda pop fizz, wild card rum

i got you

 (i'm gonna make it right

before the next teardrop falls

i'm gonna make it right 

before the next siren calls)
