Don’t wait for me

‘Cause I’ll be gone

Another victim

Of the gun

The smoke that steals

The air we breathe

Will linger here

‘Til people see

People see



The gunpowder shakes

To seal the fate

Of numbers that make

The news for an hour or two

The light in the tunnel

Will be here tomorrow

But dims as we borrow

Time to make a change

Now it’s time to make a change

But what can I do?



Don’t wait for me

I won’t be seen

Another victim

Of disease

The lungs that hold

The air we breathe

Will grasp for life

‘Til people see

People see



The cancer remains

And no one is saved

From numbers that make

The news for an hour or two

The light in the tunnel

Will be here tomorrow

But dims as we borrow

Time to make a change

Now it’s time to make a change

But what can I do?
