Come on and watch me shine
Let the ones who choose to stray
God above if You hear me cryin'

Yesterday, just a dream I don't remember
Recognize the prize they'll pay In their lifetime
You can't always get the things you want, love
The story's old, the tale been told by many scholar
I'm out of time, I'm out of rhyme, I'm out of reason
Lord strike me down
Season's change and leave me out in the cold
Come on and watch me shine
Like the world is mine today
Plant my body like a seed
Let the ones who lose their way
Let the man whose words ring true
Plant my body like a seed
Like the world is mine today
Let the man who's free from sin
Sittin' you wait for my roads to cross
Come on and watch me shine
Come on and watch me shine
Like the world is mine today
Watch me shine
Like the world is mine today
Begin the violence
Till the soil and part the weed
It's gettin' cold It's time for dyin'
I've tried to sell my soul but no one's buyin'
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Cast the first stone and begin the violence
Come on and watch me shine
Lord strike me down
Lord, strike me down now if I'm lyin'
Like the world is mine today
Through the silence
You nail me down and you watch me bleed
Tomorrow, still a hope I've yet to indulge
In their lifetime, in their lifetime

Speak on up till his voice breaks through the silence

Tell me what you want
Uh, tell me what you need
Get what you deserve or maybe what you need
Live to see just one more day in the sunshine
Lord strike me down
So fill my hole with precious dirt, love
Watch me shine
(Check it out)
So lay my head against the earth
Watch me shine
