An Eye for Your Time
Written By: Raul A. Rodriguez
Performed By: Harry's Bronze Coffin



this is the life I'd like to lead
up on the stage is where I'd prefer to be
preaching the word of life and what it has to offer me
"and I quote" the preacher said "I refuse this be my cause of death"

those clay pigeons may have got the Bopper
Lennon was taken by that .38 revolver
but had these men never wrote a song in there lives, would they still be alive?

perhaps I should leave the preaching to the priests
life has so much more to offer me
am I just being selfish or is this my destiny?
"and I quote" the preacher said "I never quite understood the voices in my head"

those clay pigeons may have gotten Valens
Holly, Mercury, they had so much talent
but had these men never wrote a song in there lives, would they still be alive?

I'm too young to die
I'm too young to die
when I turn 85, I'll be singing
I'm too young to die
but I'll never know what could have been if I never try

this is my attempt to spread the word
listen closely boys and girls
don't be afraid of death
don't end up like me
for this isn't the end of times, because time has no end
one day you'll be reborn again
whether it’s in hell or its in heaven is your God given choice
it's like George always said, "it's all in the mind"
I guess that's why I've got this feeling inside

I'm too young to die
I'm too young to die
when I turn 85, I'll be singing
I'm too young to die
but I'll never know what could have been if I never try

those clay pigeons may have got the Bopper
Lennon was taken by that .38 revolver
but had these men never wrote a song in there lives, would they still be alive?

I'm too young to die
I'm too young to die
when I turn 85, I'll be singing
I'm too young to die
but I'll never know what could have been if I never try
