lyrics

My band was steady on the beat
I glanced in fear and disbelief
What can’t be read, but must be seen
Ambulance is rolling through the city streets

A man white as a sheet
He stands dead on his feet
Come back don’t forget to breath
Ambulance is rolling through the city streets

There’s a door to another world
But, I don’t wanna go I don’t wanna go
Through the door to another world
I don’t wanna go

Death masks I see ‘em in my dreams
I’ve asked, but don’t know what it means
Come back don’t forget to breath
Ambulance is rolling through the city streets

There’s a door to another world
But, I don’t wanna go I don’t wanna go
Through the door to another world
I don’t wanna go

One chance is all we may receive
Looking back on a lifetime too brief
Was that all that we achieved?
Ambulance is rolling through the city streets

There’s a door to another world
But, I don’t wanna go I don’t wanna go
Through the door to another world
I don’t wanna go I don’t wanna go

Through that door to another world
But, I don’t wanna go I don’t wanna go
Through that door to another world
I don’t wanna go
