Lyrics
- Born on the wrong side of time,
- Even your best friend,
- Is ready, to watch you die.
- You don't want to live on the street,
- So you've got to sweat till you're dead,
- To make ends meet.
- Born on the wrong side of time,
- Your days are so cold,
- That you curse, just something to cry.
- That you should be living in fear,
- When you cry out,
- Your friends just don't want to hear.
- And you dream, of the day,
- When the great master time,
- Will call us .... to his side.
- And you watch, your brothers,
- Shake with fear, as they watch,
- His serpintine .... eye.
- And you can smell, their fear,
- As they stand, and curse,
- The fact that they're .... alive.
- Born on the wrong side of time,
- Pretend to yourself,
- That some day, you'll do just fine.
- You know that you live through a lie,
- You'll only find out what went wrong,
- When the sun makes us cry.
