As I sit here grinning like a mule eating briars,
It occurs to me that I lost something that was
part of me
And it fills this empty house with a feeling
A feeling of even greater
emptiness
(Chorus)
God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see
My soul comes together
again
My lifeline's stretched and now it's thin
Please God strike me dead if I'm never gonna
see
My soul come together again
And it's getting purt' near the point
Of
feeling pretty numb as I start to think
Of all the things that I wish
That I could change
and then some
And the numbness turns into pain
And underneath there shows a stain
I try
my best to try and hide the things
that eat me up inside
(Chorus)
God strike me dead if
I'm never gonna see
My soul come together again
My lifeline's stretched and now it's
thin
Please God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see
My soul come together
again
(Bridge)
And I know more every day
Just exactly how it came to be this way
One
more chance I'd steal it
One chance to do it again, again
(Chorus)
God strike me dead if
I'm never gonna see
My soul come together again
My lifeline's stretched and now it's
thin
Please God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see
My soul come together again
God
strike me dead, God strike me dead
God strike me dead
