Catching the Bullet

Lyrics for Catching the Bullet

A last act of compassion as this old world disappears A message to a loved one - a warning to colleagues or peers Standing perhaps at the end of the bed or floating through your dreams It's true I will be long departed before you decipher what it means Let me go now my friend let me go There are still so many things i would like you to know There's no pain now my friend there's no pain Be sure we will meet again A last act of kindness and decency now as this world disappears May get lost in a valley of sorrow or drowned in a ocean of tears A visit like this may be too much for sanity's grasp - the need to deny But the chance i can feel is too tempting to miss and i know i must try Time to go now my friend time to be gone Thanks for being there - being there for so long I am safe now my friend I am safe Be sure we'll meet again This is me signing off This is me signing out This is me signing off This is me signing out Just when you thought I was gone And the trick was complete l return to bring this curtain down As the audience will rise as one to their feet
