about

The bright light at the end of tunnel means what?

lyrics

Well that bright light was calling me to join it in the sky. Where I hear there are bright angels there to greet me when I die. Every day I dreamt of being there when they’d lain me down to rest and the gravedigger piled six feet on while the sun set in the west. Now those dying days are gone when my eyes saw only death and every moment passed me by that once stole away my breath.
Well that bright light was calling me to join it in the sky. Where I hear there are bright angels there to greet me when I die. Wasn’t Jesus Christ, the superstar, who gave me back my life, or the mysteries on high that have brought me here tonight. It’s those prayers that went unanswered for the wicked ways of men and the joy I find in being here never to return again.
Now that bright light’s still calling me to join it in the sky where I know there are no angels there to greet me when I die. The only angels that I know of, are also caught up in this mess and they’ll be stealing every moment that once stole away my breath.
