You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison

In the middle of a gunfight

In the center of a restaurant

They say, "Come with your arms raised high"

Well, they're never gonna get me

Like a bullet through a flock of doves

To wage this war against your faith in me

Your life will never be the same

On your mother's eyes, say a prayer

Say a prayer, yeah

Now, but I can't, and I don't know

How we're just two men as God had made us

Well, I can't, well, I can, yeah

Too much, too late

Or just not enough of this

Pain in my heart for your dying wish

I'll kiss your lips again

They all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost

My cellmate's a killer, they make me do push-ups in drag

But nobody cares if you're losing yourself

Am I losing myself?

Well, I miss my mom

Will they give me the chair?

Or lethal injection, or swing from a rope, if you dare?

Nobody knows all the trouble I've seen

Now, but I can't, and I don't know

How we're just two men as God had made us

Well, I can't, well, I can, yeah

Too much, too late

Or just not enough of this

Pain in my heart for your dying wish

I'll kiss your lips again

To your room

What they ask of you will make you want to say, "So long"

Well, I don't remember

Why remember you?

Do you have the keys to the hotel?

'Cause I'm gonna string this motherfucker on fire

Fire!

Life is but a dream for the dead

And well, I, I won't go down by myself

But I'll go down with my friends

Now, now, now, now (I can't explain)

Now, now, now, (I can't complain)

Now, now, yeah, yeah
