Wish we'd all been ready
Life was filled with guns and war
And all of us got trampled on the floor

I wish we'd all been ready
The children died the days grew cold
A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold

I wish we'd all been ready
And there's no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behind

And there's no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behind
The Son has come and you've been left behind


A man and wife asleep in bed
She hears a noise and turns her head

He's gone
I wish we'd all been ready
Two men walking up a hill

One disappears and one left standing still
I wish we'd all been ready
And there's no time to change your mind

The Son has come and you've been left behind
No time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behind






The Father spoke
The demons dined

How could you have been so blind
And there's no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behind

No there's no time to change your mind
Because the Son has come and you've been left behind


I wish we'd all been ready
I wish we'd all been ready
I wish we'd all been ready


I wish we'd all been ready
