Life was filled with guns and war
And all of us got trampled on the floor
I wish we'd all been readyThe children died the days grew cold
A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold
I wish we'd all been readyAnd there's no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behindA man and wife asleep in bed
She hears a noise and turns her head he's gone
I wish we'd all been readyTwo men walking up a hill
One disappears and one's left standing still
I wish we'd all been readyAnd there's no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behindThe Father spoke, the demons died
How could you have been so blind?There's no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behind, no
And there's no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behindI hope we'll all be ready
(You've been left behind)
I hope we'll all be ready
(You've been left behind)
I hope we'll all be ready
(You've been left behind)
