When I Die

Well it ain't easy being rational

It can be hazardous, even laughable

And people die from what they're asking for

Cause what they're asking for, ain't never heard



Mother works so she could feed the youth

But does she feed the youth what they really need?

And everyone has got a point of view

But who is right or wrong remains to be seen



And go your way, and I go mine

We'll meet at the same place

But different times

We'll leave all the hardship and baggage behind

We'll see eye to eye for the first time



Now mamma said that I should take my time

But what she really meant was don't waste mine

And I stopped listening to what the crowd sang

But instead I learned to read between the lines



Well too much time, we did too much wrong

Would we change if we could recognize

That what was beautiful was there all along

Well in an envelope tied to your heart, I'd be suprised



And go your way, and I go mine

We'll meet at the same place

But different times

We'll leave all the hardship and baggage behind

We'll see eye to eye for the first time



Yea for the first time (x3)



And go your way, and I go mine

We'll meet at the same place

At different times

We'll leave all the hardship and baggage behind

We'll see eye to eye for the first time



Yea, for the first time (repeat)
