Old Man Lyrics

THIS IS A STORY OF A LONELY OLD MAN
WITH A TEAR DROP IN HIS EYE
AT LEAST THAT'S HOW I REMEMBER HIM
NOT LONG BEFORE HE DIED
HE SAID LOOK HERE SON AND LISTEN GOOD
TO WHAT I AM ABOUT TO SAY
YOU REMIND ME OF ME AND THAT'S NOT GOOD
IT'S TIME TO CHANGE YOUR WAYS

THIS OLD BODY HAS SEEN A LOT OF DAYS
AND WATHCHED THE YEARS GO BY
I HAD MY HEALTH AND A LOT OF FUN
BUT I LACKED SOMETHING INSIDE
EVERYDAY I WAS MAD AT THE WORLD
FOR REASONS I DON'T KNOW
THE DEVIL'S MARK WAS UPON MY SOUL
TO HELL I AM SURE TO GO NO!

I WOKE RUSHED TO THE MIRROR AND SAW HIS FACE
AN IMAGE OF ME SEEN THROUGH TIME AND SPACE
HE SHOWED ME WHAT I AM AND WHO I SHOULD BE
THAT IMAGE IN THE MIRROR, THE IMAGE IS ME

MY FACE IN MY HANDS I HIT THE FLOOR
I CRYED OUT IS THERE HOPE FOR ME LORD
A SECOND CHANCE EXTENDED TO A WRETCH LIKE ME
NOTHING DID I DO TO RECEIVE MEARCY
