We live the proper distance
For treasure or worse
With the cowards in the fine print
We make long visitors

Where God walks with persons
Even the maybe-doomed
You sing it, it's a real song
Even though their advice is not to

Please stay 'til the bitter end
I advise you to

Where God walks with persons
There's a candle of them
But when you sing it, it's a real song
When you sing to each his own man

Stay 'til the bitter end
I advise you to
Even though they make their move before then
We won't make our move before them

We work the proper distance
For treasure or worse
Where all the old hatreds
Can make us long visitors

Where God walks with persons
Even the maybe-doomed
But when you sing it, it's a real song
So my advice is that you

Stay 'til the bitter end
I'd advise you to
Even though they made their move before then
Let's stay 'til the better end
Yeah, we'll stay 'til the better end
And we'll stay
