lyrics

I met a man with glassy eyes
His soul was weak, his mind was high

He took a drink and he looked at me
Said son, you better get on your knees and pray for me

For I had it all and it washed away
And now I lay here every day

So take your life and be a man
You only got one shot to make a stand

Wipe my conscience clean
Take these memories
And burn it down
Take me to another place
Don't test my faith
God show me please
What this all means

The man kneeled and he looked away
His breath got short, his hair turned grey

I saw the light go from his eyes
His body weak his mind gone high

Why god why would you show me this?
A crazed old man who wont be missed!

The man who I had just seen
Was now another faded memory

Wipe my conscience clean
Take these memories
And burn it down
Take me to another place
Don't test my faith
God show me please
What this all means

Wipe my conscience clean
Take these memories
And burn it down
Take me to another place
Don't test my faith
God show me please
What this all means
