One Last Time

Your hands riddled with splinters, yet gentle hearted
But tomorrow brings on harder years
You've seen it all time and time before, the trees bare your burdens
Just after snowfall covered and they stand tall, but won't stand forever
Splinters bleed, burn in unforgiving chill, where will it end, no
You call, but on one to call friend

Won't you, won't you
Sacrifice one, last, time

Won't you, won't you
Ten thousand, ten thousand nails
Hear the sound, let it ring
One last time
Let it, let him sing, on and on
Just let it in, gotta let it in
Just let it in
Won't you, won't you just let in

Your foundation riddled with holes
Yet sought higher ground, won't admit defeat, you're too proud
Suddenly you surround the shattered pieces of spring bloom dreams and it hits
Who will remember you when your eyes go dark
Like a beacon no longer in the night sky
How many years have been lost, your heart can not pay the cost no

Won't you, won't you
Sacrifice one, last, time

Won't you, won't you
Ten thousand, ten thousand nails
Hear the sound, let it ring
One last time
Let it, let him sing, on and on
Just let it in, gotta let it in
Just let it in
Won't you, won't you just let in

Ten thousand nails struck, but fell silent
Tears stain your clothes, and have nowhere to go
Ten thousand, ten thousand nails, when will you hear the sounds
Creator of kings, hear him, hear him sing
Surround, surround you now
Let it ring oh, let it ring

Won't you, won't you
Ten thousand, ten thousand nails
Hear the sound, let it ring
One last time
Let it, let him sing, on and on
Just let it in, gotta let it in
Just let it in, gotta let it in
Just let it in...
