Dead on Time Songtext
von The Rambling Wheels

I′m getting off my cancelled train
I'm wondering who you were
People rushing everywhere
Believing they′re always on time
Now they're stuck with the flights they missed
Selfish thoughts laying bare
Who wants to know you?
Who wants to know?
What made you decide to leave?

I hate to hear them say
We're late cause you′re dead

You made it to the other side
Your feet crossed the line
Sorry you′re dead on time
You did it on time


Sitting on the other train
My face holds thoughts of you
Wondering why you went off the rails
Why life for you was to blame?
Now it's too late to know you
Too late to know
Nobody wants to let themselves go
You had your reasons that took you so far
What made you decide to leave?

I hate to hear them say
We′re late cause you're dead

You told your feet to cross the line
To the other side
You smashed your heart into goodbyes
Oh, you did it on time
You told your feet to cross the line
To the other side
Sorry you′re dead on time

Do you haunt the planes
Or swim round the boats
Or wake them all up at night?
I'd like to hear them cry!
