God Strike Me Dead

As I sit here grinning like a mule eating briar's

Well it occurs to me that

I lost something that was part of me

And it fills this empty house with a feeling

A feeling of even greater emptiness

God strike me dead if

I'm never gonna see

My soul comes together again

My lifeline's stretched and now it's thin

Please God strike me dead if

I'm never gonna see

My soul come together again

And it's getting purt' near the point

Of feeling pretty numb

As I start to think of all the things

That I wish that

I could change and then some

And the numbness turns into pain

Underneath there shows a stain

I try my best to try and hide the things

That eat me up inside

God strike me dead if

I'm never gonna see

My soul come together again

My lifeline's stretched and now it's thin

Please God strike me dead if

I'm never gonna see

My soul come together again

And I know more every day

Just exactly how it came to be this way

One more chance

I'd feel it, one more chance

I'd steal it

One chance to do it again, again

God strike me dead if

I'm never gonna see

My soul come together again

My lifeline's stretched and now it's thin

Please God strike me dead if

I'm never gonna see

My soul come together again, oh

God strike me dead

God strike me dead

God strike me dead
