Until the guilt is forgiven

I couldn’t see the reaper at your door
I thought that time would patch you up
Did the clock
stop ticking?

You always carried more than you could bear
You said that help is always near,
just call
your brother

I gotta keep running, oh, until the guilt is forgiven
I gotta keep running, oh, your love will not be forgotten

Sometimes I wanna hear about your life
and all the crazy stuff you’ve done,
but no-one’s here
to stay

You told me not hasten through my days
and that you’d walk ten steps ahead,
yet the gap
is narrowing

I gotta keep running, oh, until the guilt is forgiven
I gotta keep running, oh, your love will not be forgotten
