Doing Time lyrics

See the fight

Old men crying, deny their ruin

Watch them try

The cynic laughs at the optimist's closed eyes

Darkness falls, curtain calls, the cynic's beer soon overflows

Other watches, has a seat, and from the same cup, they drink

I'm doing time, how long I don't know

William had 26

Blew his brains out, now look at him

John had only one

Watch the mother mourn her only son

I'm doing time, how long I don't know

I'll kiss goodbye my brain and body

And go to sleep for generations

And go to sleep for generations

Salvation

Cease concentration

You'll only lose the fight

Don't tell me what's wrong or right

You're losing sight

You're just gonna die anyway
