Heard a sound screaming down from all around
From loud speakers in the center of the square
Said my time was up, and all the spotlights focused down
Seemed like everyone I ever knew was there
Wandered home alone, past the palaces I'll never own
Kindom come, kingdom go
Saw the wave that was heading toward the shore
Though it moves me still it breaks what I have made
I need a hand, I can't shout it any more
Is it true yours is so effortlessly played?
There was a lucky rain in June
So you couldn't tell what I'd just been through
Kindom come, kingdom go
Traced the path with a smile and sympathy
Saw the circles and the spirals and the lines
Had to realize it really all was me
Had to tell myself a hundred thousand times
Shake my head and say, g****** I guess I'm here today
Kingdom come, kingdom go
From loud speakers in the center of the square
Said my time was up, and all the spotlights focused down
Seemed like everyone I ever knew was there
Wandered home alone, past the palaces I'll never own
Kindom come, kingdom go
Saw the wave that was heading toward the shore
Though it moves me still it breaks what I have made
I need a hand, I can't shout it any more
Is it true yours is so effortlessly played?
There was a lucky rain in June
So you couldn't tell what I'd just been through
Kindom come, kingdom go
Traced the path with a smile and sympathy
Saw the circles and the spirals and the lines
Had to realize it really all was me
Had to tell myself a hundred thousand times
Shake my head and say, g****** I guess I'm here today
Kingdom come, kingdom go
