Lyrics for The Sentinel

I never kicked a dog, A child or my wife I never looked at pornography I swear it on my holy saint mother's life But somehow she's down here with me The road to hell is littered With nice guys with good intentions But once you're there, you're there It's much too late I can cry and scream it's just not fair To leave me here like you don't care There must be some mistake up there in heaven Now it's much too late My time has passed away All my plans and dreams have all ended Now it's much too late To try and plead my case And I don't know the God I've offended It's too late I never stole a thing A toy or a kiss My conscience is a clear as can be And when I was a teen All the sex that I missed Was an abstinence blessing to me The road to hell is littered With nice guys with good intentions But once you're there, you're there It's much too late I can cry and scream it's just not fair To leave me here like you don't care There must be some mistake up there in heaven Now it's much too late My time has passed away All my plans and dreams have all ended Now it's much too late To try and plead my case And I don't know the God I've offended It's too late Now it's much too late My time has passed away All my plans and dreams have all ended Now it's much too late To try and plead my case And I don't know the God I've offended It's too late It's much too late
