Sky Takes the Soul

It could be tomorrow or it could be today
When the sky takes the soul
The earth takes the clay

It could be tomorrow or it could be today
When the sky takes the soul
The earth takes the clay

I sometimes wonder, why I pray
When my spirit just drives away
With a faith and a bit of luck
And a half tonne bomb in the back of the truck

And it could be tomorrow, or it could be today
When the sky takes the soul
The earth takes the clay

It could be tomorrow or it could be today
When the sky takes the soul
The earth takes the clay

Feel the towel 'cause it's wet with sorrow
From the tears we'll shed tomorrow
Don't bring flowers, take a chance
On some graves you should dance

It could be tomorrow, it could be today
When the sky takes the soul
The earth takes the clay

It could be tomorrow or it could be today
When the sky takes the soul
The earth takes the clay

If it's tomorrow or if it's today
I don't say it will be, I just say it may
When I'm on my knees to the gates I'll stumble
And plead my case in a style that's humble

It could be tomorrow, it could be today
When the sky takes the soul
The earth takes the clay

It could be tomorrow or it could be today
When the sky takes the soul
The earth takes the clay
