The New York Rel-X

Come And Gone

The New York Rel-X


always looked sharp 
and always looked nice 
did pretty well for himself 
and his wife 
with one quick shake 
and the roll of the dice 
he lost everything 
that he worked for in life 
now everything is gone 
don't know what to do 
where do i turn 
and look for a clue 
the fear of loss 
overwhelmed him 
he takes the jump 
to make it all end 

[Chorus]
so quickly can it come, so quickly can it fall 
so quickly can it come, so quickly can it fall for you! 

she walked this path 
a million times before 
yet this one fateful night 
was a tale of gore 
with one swift slice 
when she reached the bend 
saw the flash of light 
thought this was the end 
her frightful tears 
trickled down her face 
slowly her blood 
poured all over the place 
the blackness slowly 
engulfed her mind 
she fell into a sleep 
with her life behind 

[Chorus]

livin' our lives 
from day to day 
never know when 
it's gonna take you away 
dont' understand 
but it happens fast 
before you know it 
you're a thing of the past 

[Chorus]
