In the middle of a gun fight
In the center of a restaurant
They say, "come with your arms raised high!"

Well they're never gonna get me
Like a bullet through a flock of doves
To wage this war against your faith in me,
Your life will never be the same
On your mother's eyes say a prayer
Say a prayer

[Chorus]
Now, but I can't
And I don't know
How we're just two men as god had made us
But I can't, well I can
Too much, too late or just not enough of this
pain in my heart for your dying wish
I kiss your lips again

they all cheat at cards, and the checkers are lost
My cellmate's a killer, they make me do push-ups in drag
Well nobody cares if you're losing yourself
Am I losing myself? Well I miss my mom!
Give me the chair, or lethal injection
or swing from the rope if you dare
oh nobody knows, the trouble i've seen

[Chorus]
Now, well I cant
And I don't know
How we're just two men as god had made us
Well I cant, well I can
Too much, too late and just not enough of us
pain in my heart for your dying wish
I kiss your lips again

To your room
What they ask of you
Will make you want to sit
So long
But I dont remember
Why remember?

Life is but a dream for the dead
And well I, I wont go down by myself
But ill go down with my friends
Now now now now. now now now. now now now
