Killing Time (original)

Killing Time (original)

I can feel you creeping in
Hiding in the shadows as you shed your skin
There's nothing left that I recognize

If you knew now what I knew then
You'd turn around and never walk this way again
If you knew now you'd cast your fears aside

Take me home, don't spare the horses
I'll see you when it's killing time again
Take me home, don't spare the horses
They know the way so well

Blood runs red as it drains away
Fading like the flowers on a summer's day
My body's warm but my heart lays still tonight

If you knew now what I knew then
You'd turn around and never walk this way again
If you knew now you'd cast your fears aside

Lay down your arms tonight
I don't know why we're fighting
We should stick together
We could face the world as one
