Killing Time

By David Snyder

V1

Well the hour glass says I’m running out
And the Holy Priest is full of doubt
And the warden won’t let me out
Until I’ve had my share
I been staring out
On the prison yard
And I see a guy who’s trying hard
To dig a hole
That will lead him to nowhere

PRE CH:

Yeah everything in the world has changed
But one thing remains the same

CH:

I will love you in the summer
And I will love you in the fall
I will love you in the winter
And when spring time comes to call
I will love you baby until they make me walk that line
I will love you ‘til that day
When they say
It’s killing time

V2

Well I am sorry for the killing I’ve done
Never wanted to hurt no one
But I know I’m not the only man
Who has ever sought revenge
Justice is mine
Saith the Lord
I wished I’d studied more on those words
Before I killed the man
who stole the life of my little girl

PRE CH:

Yeah everything in the world has changed
But one thing remains the same

CH:

I will love you in the summer
And I will love you in the fall
I will love you in the winter
And when spring time comes to call
I will love you baby until they make me walk that line
[And I will meet you in heaven on that day
When they say
It’s killing time x 2]
And Baby just so you know
Your Daddy’s feelin’ fine

You should team up with that redneck Tater Totts. You sound a lot like him grin

WOW.

You have outdone yourself here, Mr. Snyder.

This is a beautifully written song. Poignant and POWERFUL.
As powerful a write as I've heard in years.

The production is nice!

Your best vocal. Sung with conviction.

This is a stunner!

Lots of emotion in this song, and a very professional use of the real tracks.

Great song. This is an outstanding write and production. Very emotive and compelling.

Your writing versatility reminds me of John D. Loudermilk's.

Enjoyed this one a lot.

David,
I enjoyed your dark tale with a sweet reprieve in the chorus.
Your vocals are just right for the mood and backing nicely understated.
Another keeper!

Cool song... reminded me a bit of Cameron Poe.

I enjoyed what you did with this one.
