Riding down the open road
I'm on a straight line
Yeah I was on my way to the holy ghost
When the devil road by

From the fire to the ashes the angels call
To find a home
Didn't know what I had had 'till I found it gone
Now I'm waiting all day long

For a century song
I'll sit and wait for a century song

Write it all down before you die
The lessons I'm learning
Yeah I was soaking wet in a cold black lie
When I could've been burning

Like a choir the bullets sing
To find a home
I don't care whatever you think the future brings
That'll only take to long

Like a century song
I'll sit and wait for a century song

From the fire to the ashes the angels call
To find a home
Didn't know what I had had 'till I found it gone
Now I'm waiting all day long

For a century song
I'll sit and wait for a century song
Like a century song
I'll sit and wait for a century song
