Royal Hunt - Rest in Peace

You used to think:" I'll get it done, if not today-why not tomorrow?
Whatever man-i'm not the one to rue and ever dwell in sorrow"
A dollar short a day too late-and that's your really tragic story
So "don't give up" and "keep the faith" won't work at all, now i'm sorry

RIP with every single dream you've ever had, below a muddy clad
RIP unshackled from these heavy chains of time...fate's turning on a dime

You've got it right, somtime it feels like everyone's so tense, so driven
But every single second killsa a little bit of time we're given
Too old to die too young, get real: you had your chance but now it's over
Too proud to beg too dumb to steal and every day you're sinking lower

The whole way to the bottom:this trail is well trodden
forgiven, forgotten
