John Coffey Me Vs. I
In living lies a familiar treat
There's both love and deceit in the ranks of the emperor
No one's left out from cleaning the sheets
Because we all have wounds so just get up
Gear up, fall in
I bring it back
And the it all comes back to that moment of grief and pain
And tears because I do really care
And then again I really don't care at all
And oh I really do love my enemy's
I never had it and I never loved it
I was only searching for the right track
And I never sang a song for you
The song was always about me
They told me how to deal with rounds and stripes and letters of grief
It's like you said that it would be
'cause it is -'cause it is time
I will do better, yeah believe me
'cause it is -'cause it is time
Get up and dance, get up and smile
Get up and drink to the days that are gone
In the shortest while
I never gave you the proper goodbye, proper love, proper coffee you deserved
I only washed my sheets, yeah I did wash them like I washed
My innocence in brown, muddy water
I never had it I only had this taste and
Thirst for better wine
Get up, gear up, fall in! Get up, gear up, fall in!
In living lies a familiar treat
There's both love and deceit in the ranks of the emperor
No one's left out from cleaning the sheets
Because we all have wounds so just get up
Gear up, fall in
It's like you said that it would be
'cause it is -'cause it is time
I will do better, yeah believe me
'cause it is -'cause it is time
