Everything we did just went so wrong Last time that I saw her, she was standing there Now, I've come to wonder where she's gone Where she's gone, Lord Where she's gone, Lord Now, I've come to wonder where she's gone And have you seen my mother She's out looking for my father? Didn't think that she'd be gone this long He's gone where you can't go but I let her have her fun Now, I've come to wonder where she's gone Where she's gone, Lord Where she's gone, Lord Now, I've come to wonder where she's gone And what about my sister? She looks just like me Looking into her is like a mirror And when we were young We weren't two but one Sometimes I come to wonder where she's gone Where she's gone, Lord Where she's gone Without a kingdom Without a bed over my head Don't believe what they told you Believe what you heard or what I said And now I go down, towards the water In which we cried And now I go down, towards the dirt In which we died, died, died, died Destroyer (destroyer) Destroyer (destroyer) And, oh, what about me?

When I was young, just under 21 I tore my town apart by emptying my loaded gun Into the atmosphere, catching bodies along the way And now the Lord can't help me, and there ain't no god to save A wretch like me A wretch like me A wretch like me My family is upset, but I'm still their baby boy Who's never gone nowhere alone, but now I ain't got no choice I'm going down, I'm going down I'm going down, down, down, I'm going down Oh, but I don't wanna go to hell No, I don't wanna go to hell But if the devil is a bully Then I guess I might as well still be alive And at the football games, everyone will know my name Won't matter if they're local, or they're in from outta state The innocent boy turned dangerous who went to the mall that day He grew up in the foothills He went to that mall to slay And like a bad dream, that feels so real That it can't be, but it is still And like a nightmare taken out of sleep It hits you in the morning like a newspaper at your feet My name will reign My name will reign My name will reign Cryin' on my mama's shoulders holdin' my daddy's hand Look into my sister's eyes, I know it's hard to understand That what I did, won't be forgiven And what I did, is neverending But look up at the school and tell me What do you see? There's something wrong with all of them There's nothing wrong with me My name will reign My name will reign My name will reign My name will reign My name will reign, reign My name will reign My name will reign, reign My name will reign My name will reign, reign My name will reign My name will reign, reign My name will reign When I was young, just under 21 I tore my town apart by emptying my loaded gun Into the atmosphere, catching bodies along the way And now the Lord can't help me, and there ain't no god to save A wretch like me

There's a dead deer in the road up ahead Must be an omen From an hour ago or so Must have been chosen And the day moves fast, and the day moves slow Don't I know it? And I never met a morning that I didn't like And I never met a night that I wouldn't try twice You should go before the dawn Cast no shadows But I'm already gone, mmh And grab provisions There's nothing for a hundred miles And cast your vision On the dark road For a while Storm is coming now, it sits in a cloud And soon the sky will open up its big mouth I feel it in my bones, I feel so alone My heart's the guitar, and my mouth the piano I have many teeth in many different keys Honey, if you're good, then don't do it for free Do what I have to do, say what I have to say Put a quarter in my jukebox then be on your way And grab provisions There's nothing for a hundred miles And cast your vision On a memory For a while Puerto Rican bride with tears in her eyes On her wedding day Oh, loves a parade, but don't just give it away Choose carefully Confetti in my hand, are you ready to be a man? Are you inside the kingdom, or just dead where you stand? And the tin cans drum on the pavement And somebody yells, "Someone save us!" You were a wishing well, oh, inside of hell And I'd stand over you and I'd laugh as it fell Wish you would come again As lovers or friends, I don't care but 'til then Grab provisions There's nothing for a hundred miles And cast your vision On a melody For a while Oh, sound off, one, two Three, four, who's at the door? And five, six, who is this? And seven, eight, I'm feeling fine And sound off, one, two Three, four, get on the floor And five, six, pick up sticks And seven, eight, who's at the gate? Oh, and sound off, one, two Three, four, who's at my door And five, six, who is this? And seven, eight, mm-mm-mm Grab provisions There's nothing for a hundred miles And cast your vision On the dark road For a while
