I Wish We'd All Been Ready lyrics

Life was filled with guns and war

And everyone got trampled on the floor

I wish we'd all been ready

Children died the day grew cold

A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold

I wish we'd all been ready

There's no time to change your mind

The son has come and you've been left behind

A man and wife sleep in bed

She hears a noise and turns her head, he's gone

I wish we'd all been ready

Two men walking up a hill

One disappears and one's left standing still

I wish we'd all been ready

There's no time to change your mind.

The Son has come and you've been left behind

Life was filled with guns and war

And everyone got trampled on the floor

I wish we'd all been ready

Children died the day grew cold

A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold

I wish we'd all been ready

There's no time to change your mind

How could you have been so blind?

The father spoke, the demons dined

The son has come and you've been left behind

Don't get left behind, (don't get left behind)

Don't get left behind, (don't get left behind)

Don't get left behind, (don't get left behind)

Don't get left behind, (don't get left behind)

Don't get left behind, (don't get left behind)

Don't get left behind
