Jackyl God Strike Me Dead
(J.J. Dupree) As I sit here grinning like a mule eating briars It occurs to me that I lost something that was a part of me And it fills this empty house with a feeling A feeling of even greater emptiness (Chorus) God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see My soul come together again My lifeline's stretched and now it's thin Please God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see My soul come together again And it's getting purt' near the point Of feeling pretty numb as I start to think Of all the things that I wish That I could change and then some And the numbness turns into pain And underneath there shows a stain I try me best to try to hide the things That eat me up inside (Chorus) God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see My soul come together again My lifeline's stretched and now it's thin Please God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see My soul come together again (Bridge) And I know more every day Just exactly how it came to be this way One more chance I'd steal it One chance to do it again, again (Chorus) God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see My soul come together again My lifeline's stretched and now it's thin Please God strike me dead if I'm never gonna see My soul come together again God strike me dead, God strike me dead God strike me dead
