Eye On The Finish Line Lyrics

Eye On The Finish Line

such an awful, tragic night 

though i've only done what's right 

even with my conscience clear 

i can't help this flood of tears 

i've got my eye on the finish line 



though i've been striving for their good 

i will be misunderstood 

even my own darling dear 

misconstrued my words so clear 



given the time i think she would have understood 

that it was for the greater good 

soon i will meet her at our mansion in the sky 

leaving this wicked world behind 



it's strange that it should end this way 

but martyrs never have a say
