Now one fell asleep in the street And he never woke up And now one died in pieces Whose been with a mouthful of ghosts And one threatening long ago I saw him Melt in the bright of day And one laid to rest in the field On the stories and crawled, hey I've been walking the 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 to the chest and the field gone wrong One got a little too depressed then 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, hey 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 Yeah 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, hey I've seen fifty thousand names all engraved on a stone Most of them, met 'em at a grave years before I was born All of them left brothers and sisters and mothers behind And most of their family and friends are alive Every time I've been wandering sideways I've stared straight into the sun And I don't know why you're dying Long before your time has come Yeah I've been wandering sideways I've stared straight into the sun And I don't know why you're dying Long before your time has come Your time has come
