I can Gsee you in the distance and you're Cheading for a Gfall
Sinking deeper by the minute you're Cabout to lose it Gall
You better Bmchange before the Csun C/Bgoes dAmown
You better Bmleave before you are the Clast C/Bin     Amtown

You better raise your fortresses or tear them down
There's an Gangel on your shoulder and a Cdevil at your Gfeet
And that door you see before you  could be Cpoison tasting Gsweet
You better Bmchange before the Csun C/Bgoes Amdown
You better Bmleave before you are the Clast C/Bin     Amtown
