This is a song about stayin back

Oh, if I play my cards right today
and I wake up
and find all ?
and I wonder how I could escape from this
always say the line say and the line he say
same way that I
go to bed, go to bed, go to bed

so I tell em, come home again
get something to this little box
and it's got me wondering here
why the war, what i do, why its some ?

So I say
the friends and neighbors
they will rest a while
and will run all this while
oh, wait and open here

Turn your eyes and oh
nowhere
well the years it's coming
turn around and oh, hey why
why would I ask you about this


So they say, oh it's game over
and I rule to you ?
the way I did it oh, when I was under your spell
when I was under it
when I was
I walk up and down these floors
and we play the same game
everyday its the way I go
oh if i leave these streets and go without you yeah


hey hey hey hey

Turn your head and pray!
It will save, it will save a world and feel it grow!
Ah damn the war.
Don't fear this way,
don't fear dying or growing old.
But fear not doing it with grace and hope.
Oh don't go kicking and biting ah!
The game will soon be over and you'll wonder,
why you still know this time on our planet.

main lyrics
Come and see
I swear by now I'm playing time against my troubles, oh
oh, I'm coming slow but speeding
do you wish a dance and while I'm in the front
the play on time is won
oh, but the difficulty's coming here

I will go in this way
and find my own way out
I won't tell you to be
but it's coming to much more
me
come down, the ghosts come back reeling in you now
oh, what if they came down crashing?
in a way I used to play for all of the loneliness that nobody notices now
oh, begging, slow, I'm coming here

Only waiting
I wanted to stay, I wanted to play, I wanted to love you
I'm only this far, and only tomorrow leads the way
I'm coming waltzing back and moving into your head

Please, I wouldn't pass this by
oh, I wouldn't take any more than what sort of man goes by?
I will bring water
why won't you ever be glad it melts into wonder?
I came in praying for you
why won't you run into the rain and pray
and let tears splash all over you?
