The day is coming you'll forget your gold
You'll throw it in the streets like a sacrifice of old
But you won't be able to buy what you most desire
Another sunrise to avoid the fire

No, it won't protect you from the crowd of sins
They've come to get you
No it won't protect you from the state you're in
When it's time to go

The day is coming you'll forget your power
There'll be be no favors to trade in that final hour
No political talk, you have reached the top
Now it's time to come, come back down

Promises you didn't keep are hangin' around
They won't protect you
From the pack of lies you spread in this town
When it's time to go

The time is comin' you'll remember the day
And every bit of truth you threw away
And every bit of love that you crucified
Will be comin' back to haunt you like a jilted bride
It'll come to get you, don't you worry 'bout that
No, it won't forget you
It will surely find you 'xactly where you're at
When it's time to go
