Lyrics for About to Die
About to die, the crowds applaud you Afraid to die, they'll resurrect you Light a candle up in kingdom come Light the way for the Savior's son A candle burning bright enough to tear the city down About to die, the crowds reward you About to die, their cheers ignore you Light a candle up in kingdom come Make welcome for the chosen one No candle burned with fire enough to tear that city down About to die, the crowds applaud me Afraid to die, they'll resurrect me Light a candle up in kingdom come Light the way for the Savior's son A candle burning bright enough to tear that city down
