[ Featuring Mark Zeck ]
Local bar, Jim after parking the car
+
Sits close to the counter asking for a drink
+
He had a bad fight with his boss
+
That is why he lost his job
+
Now he is sad, bad thoughts are floating in his head
+
His hands are shaking he can't stop
+
He finishes the beer, get's on with shots
+
His hands are shaking he can't stop
+
He asks for another pint, the bartender nods
+
He keeps on drinking, but tonight something is wrong
+
Maybe you must quit, for your best
+
The bartender says
+
No, I wanna die, Jim says
+
I'm depressed
+
A guy pushes him, you will regret that he says,
+
Two other dudes join, they keep making fun of him
+
Jim relax, they do not know what they doing, but no one stands up
+
He is anger repressed, a loud bang breaks the laugh
+
Jim takes then takes out the Glock, one single shot at the chest
+
The first jock is dead
+
Before the other realize, he fires bullets at the two other guys,
+
The two die
+
Jim, What did you
+
Jim what did you do, Jim what did you do
+
Jim what did you do
+
There is no turning back
+
Jim, there is no turning back
+
The police arrive
+
No loved ones to say goodbye
+
Jim still stands, shaking in fear
+
His eyes full of tears
+
His life is over, his life is over
+
His life is over
+
Is too late to say sorry now
+
Nothing else to worry about
+
No time to find a cover
+
Your life is over
+
20 years after he is out of jail
+
Those memories are always there
+
He doesn't know what he is going to do
+
All of what he is going through
+
Changes, arrangements, madness
+
And now, no he is not depressed anymore
+
He forces himself to do more
+
Instead of crawling back to his hole
+
He knows what would make him whole
+
A change, for instance, a call to help
+
To work for those in need
+
To find a purpose for his life
+
To resist the ignorance of the past
+
That still exists, a bring new life
+
For a better start
+
But this time make things right
+
No, soften your heart, often be the one, help
+
Those who still live in the past
+
Redeem yourself, be a new man
+
Stand for those who need help
+
Stand for those who need help
+
I don't matter how much you f*cked up
+
You can always redeem yourself
+
Redeem yourself, be a new man
+
Stand up for those who need help, be a better man
+
Don't care what people say
+
