Time
Just a little bit older
Standing here blind
Holding the line
Like an obedient soldier
I march right ahead
Rifle sits on my shoulder
Don't move too fast
I'm ready to blast
If you get any closer
You see the workings of my mind
You barely know
They say a good thing's hard to find
A miracle
I'm a miracle
You see the workings of my mind
You barely know
They say a good thing's hard to find
A miracle
I'm a miracle
They'll tell my story round a fire
Coyotes know my tale for life, for life
A twinkle flashing on their eyes
And the way, the way they tell it, will be my prize
Until then I'm in disguise
I'm riding sleepless till I'm blind
But one day you'll see me shine
In the way, in the way of legends
Of war hero cries
And then I fall I break my stride
(Break my stride)
I feel the gravel cut my sides
(Cut my sides)
My pistol shoots into my thigh
(Into my thigh)
My ride kept going through the night
(Through the night)
You see the workings of my mind
You barely know
They say a good thing's hard to find
A miracle
I'm a miracle
You see the workings of my mind
You barely know
They say a good thing's hard to find
A miracle
I'm a miracle
But what if I return as someone else
And looking like a stranger they can't tell
So I can't do a thing with all I've learned
But what if I return as someone else
And looking like a stranger they can't tell
What am I to do with all I've learned
Time
Just a little bit older
Standing here blind
Holding the line
Like an obedient soldier
I march right ahead
Rifle sits on my shoulder
Don't move so fast
I'm ready to blast
If you get any closer
You see the workings of my mind
You barely know
They say a good thing's hard to find
A miracle
I'm a miracle
You see the workings of my mind
You barely know
They say a good thing's hard to find
A miracle
I'm a miracle
