Hand of God
Inside the myth of youth
I didn't see the truth
Time was on my side
I'll never die
Train wrecks all around
So high, the music loud
Old men warning me
But I'll never die
The sky is wide, crowd applauds
Life without the hand of God
The swamp of middle age
Gently punish me
Get me outta here
I don't want to die
The shine of summer fades
Slowly turning grey
Wrinkles tell a tale
Of heartache and fail
Shadow cast, growing long
Can I see the hand of God?
In a dream high above the prayers
I could see only we were there
Sitting in my chair
I don't have a care
I'm warm in the sun
My book is nearly done
If I could go back
There's so much I would say
But I would not listen
When I was your age
Waiting for the night to fall
Winter brings the hand of God
One thing I learned, through it all
There was no Hand of God
