Eye On The Finish Line Songtext / Lyric

"Such an awful, tragic night, though I've only done what's right.
But even with my conscience clear, I can't help this flood of tears.

I've got my eye on the finish line.
I've got my eye on the finish line.
I've got my eye on the finish line.

Though I'm striving for their good, I will be misunderstood.
Even my own darling dear, misconstrued what was so clear.

Given the time I think she would have understood, that it was for the greater good.
Soon I will meet her at our mansion in the sky, leaving this wicked world behind.

It's strange that it should end this way, but martyrs never have a say."
