  • Find yourself a new frontier
    'Cause life is going, going gone
    Fly yourself away from here 'til you're clear
    Before it's going, going, gone

    Say it loud and in the light
    For it's going, going gone
    Shake the hands, the hands that pick people fight
    'Cause life is going, going gone

    Yes I'll find you and cut you down
    Friends and neighbours, sleepy town
    If you wake up before the blow
    Pick your face up
    We come, we go
    We live until we live no more

    Travel with the dead black eye
    Before it's come and come and gone
    Cradles and the rocking chairs beneath the light
    Before it's come and come and gone

    Yes I'll find you and cut you down
    Friends and neighbours, sleepy town
    If you wake up before the blow
    Pick your face up
    We come, and go
    We come and go, oh oh oh
    We come and go, oh oh oh oh Writer/s: CALEB FOLLOWILL, JARED FOLLOWILL, MATTHEW FOLLOWILL, NATHAN FOLLOWILL

  • Michele from New York, NyThis song is better than half the songs on OBTN. It definitely should have been on the cd.
