Before My Time Is Up

I gotta laugh at the whole damn big bang
On every trial I'm due for
Even if my last words fail me
Until the drums stop beating
When it all fades away to nothing
Time is up
I won't regret my actions
I never lost my mind, I gave it all I had
Time is
And even if I can't get justice
Before my heart's deprived, before they call my name
I'll be a better man before my time is
I believe that the road goes somewhere
I ain't a man until I've done it all

I won't regret my actions
Until the crossroads burn out
Before my time is up, I'll leave no stone unturned
Before they read my lifelong sentence
Before they take away my last temptation

On the back fences of my dream line
To where the crossroads burn out

Before my time is up, I'll hang my name
I wanna know I tried to take a real hard stand
On every trial I'm due for
To get away with the whole damn big bang
I ain't a man until I've done it all
Beyond the empty eyes, beyond the wasted land
And even if I can't get justice
I've got to cry sometimes, got to love somebody

I'll be a better man before my time is up

I'll be a better man
And even if my last words fail me
For the right reasons, for what you can't take back
Even if my last words fail me
I'll take you down to hell

Before my time is up, I'll hang my name
Until the drums stop beating
Before my time is
Before I get my share, before I go alone
Before my time is up, I'll leave no stone unturned
I'll take you down to hell
