[Verse 1]

I'm not long for this earth, no one is

With one hand in the dirt and one in his

We hear the preacher numbering our sins

Then we go about our buryin'

[Chorus]

When the lilies call my name

May the bridges I have burned

Light my way

Light my way

[Verse 2]

I've seen my lover's eyes right at the end

And I've learned enough, I won't go back again

No caskets, no serenades, and don't preserve my skin

'Cause I don't wanna be your mannequin

[Chorus]

When the lilies call my name

May the bridges I have burned

Light my way (My way, my way, my way)

Light my way (My way, my way, my way)

Light my way (My way, my way, my way)

Light my way (My way, my way, my way)

Light my way (My way, my way, my way)

Light my way (My way, my way, my way)

Light my way (My way, my way, my way)

Light my way (My way, my way, my way)

Light my way
