Tell Them I Was Here Lyrics

If it comes down to this
If it comes up at all
Please tell them
Tell them I was

Once gone and dearly departed
This world not terribly sparse
And without
So tell them I was here

Please tell them, tell them I was

"Courage", said the lion
And patience was a snake
"Let's run", says the jackal
"Before it's too late"

I could be dust in God's pocket
Or the hair on a rooster's head
I don't know but tell them I was

Oh, please tell them
Tell them I was here
Oh, please tell them
Tell them I was here

I'm misinformed, I missed the boat
I miss the mother to hold me close
Gone to hell or condescend
I wanna feel like it just doesn't end

When it's time
I guess we'll know
And when it's mine
That'll be the show

And tell them I was here

Oh, please tell them
Oh, tell them I was
Somebody tell them
Tell them I was here

Misinformed, missed the boat
I miss the mother, hold me close
Gone to help, condescend
I wanna feel like it just, doesn't end

If it comes up at all
