Father, can you hear me
I'm calling out to you
I'm bleeding out, waiting in your queue
The Reckoning is coming to those who don't believe
Leave the light on, Mama, but don't wait up for me
Well I left home when I was young
I didn't want to, but did what then was done
Now we're at war, that's what I said
You might be speaking out, but you don't speak for the dead
I did what I could with what I had
I gave my best, you wanted more than that
There's one way in, there's no way out
But if the money's flowing, just keep your head down
Father, can you hear me
I'm calling out to you
I'm bleeding out, waiting in your queue
The Reckoning is coming to those who don't believe
Leave the light on, Mama, but don't wait up for me
It took some time, it took some proof
Old habits died, but couldn't hide the truth
So don't look back, don't cause a scene
If you left right now, you'd still have time for me
Father, can you hear me
I'm calling out to you
I'm bleeding out, waiting in your queue
The Reckoning is coming to those who don't believe
Leave the light on, Mama, but don't wait up for me
