Jay Walking Backwards Lyrics

Their arms frantically tossed through the air

While his hands were together reciting a prayer

"Jesus my lord, don't take this good man,

Just let him finish what you begun

Stop covering the pavement with his blood

Can you hear me, can you hear me?"



The cameras start to roll now everyone can see

To feed his family caused someone else to be taken away from theirs

It's head is now one with the pavement,

And is hiding behind the flares



Time for heaven,

Or is it back to the shelter

Well lying inside of a coffin is always going to be a warm temperature

Naked and damned, the load is trapped and rolled away

Midnight appetite, sirens silent



Did you know that pedestrians always have the right of way?

Their lives came together when they danced in the street

It's really unexpected how some people meet one's covered in a sheet

The other sits in a back seat,

And another relationship is complete
