Your Day Will Come

A young lady leaves her mother

With no one to love her

To protect her from the world

And I have seen the monsters

That will haunt her

That will tear her all apart

And at her gravestone we will remember

Just where we were when you knew she would go

And I still remember that day that we left her

That’s when she said that she knows how it goes

And we sang:

"Your day will come

Your day will come

Your day will come"

And no matter what they say

It won't matter if you pray or if you sin

'Cause in the end it’s all the same

Your day will come

Your day will come

Your day will come

And no matter they say

It won't matter if you pray or if you sin

'Cause in the end it’s all the same

A young man becomes a soldier

He’s isn’t much older than a boy and that’s a shame

They will lead him into battle

Hand him medals when he comes home rearranged

And I could say so

Of a man with a halo

He will obey; he will fall into place

Remembered by ribbons but never forgiven

He'll shoulder the bulk of the blame

What a shame

And we’ll sing

If I only had a dollar

For every horror that befalls my fellow man

I'd never work another hour

But I'd grow sour from the guilt and bitterness

The luck of the draw will determine the fall and

Everyone else will relax and move on

But what will you do when they come looking for you friend?

I hope that you’re brave and you're strong

Through it all

Your day will come!

Your day will come!

Your day will come!

And no matter what they say

It won't matter if you pray or if you sin

‘Cause in the end

It's all the same
