Life was filled with guns and wars
And everyone got trampled on the floor
I wish we'd all been ready
Children died, the days grew cold
A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold
I wish we'd all been ready

There's no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behind

Two men walking up a hill
One disappears and one's left standing still
I wish we'd all been ready
A man and wife asleep in bed
She hears a noise and turns her head, he's gonе
How I wish, how I wish we'd all be ready

Thеre's no time to change your mind
How could you have been so blind
The Father spoke, the demons dined
The Son has come and you've been left behind

Have you thought about that neighbor
Ooh, a baby left behind
What about that person on your job
You don't, oh, no
You don't want them to be left behind
I wish we'd all been ready
