Lyrics:
Everybody's talking about it
he made the headline news
he's been my best friend all my life
the kind you never want to lose
he has a heart as big as Texas
trouble never knew him well
but in the blink of an eye
his world has gone straight to hell
cause, He sleeps with eyes wide open
has steel bars for windows
on his knees asking forgiveness
for what he's done
it's the price he has to pay
and now all he has today is
A Concrete Floor To Pray On
The way the story goes
that fateful Saturday night
got off work a little early
planned to do it up right
smiling he opened up the door
and felt run over by a train
she was in their bed, in another man's arms
poor boy must have gone insane
now, he sleeps with eyes wide open
has steel bars for windows
on his knees asking forgiveness
for what he 's done
it's the price he has to pay
and now all he has today is
A Concrete Floor To Pray On
The crowd gathered at the scene
as they led him away
blinding lights flashing
tears rolling down his face
a broken hearted man
scars deep down within
and as it now stands
nobody wins
cause he sleeps with eyes wide open
steel bars for windows
on his knees asking forgiveness
for what he's done
it's the price he has to pay
and now all he has today is
A Concrete Floor To Pray On
it's the price he has to pay
and now all he has today is
A Concrete Floor To Pray On
A Concrete Floor
Everybody's talking about it
