We are alive for a moment One second in the great abyss of time All the bleeding and all the hate just one blink of an eye All the conflict that visits dire pain on human life Are we missing what it is to be alive? One by one the pieces fall Until our pride defeats us all Or we learn to live without it Wake up To the sound of this time bomb Wake up To its deafening song Wake up 'Cause you don't know what you've got until it's gone Until it's gone And our innocence is a virtue But our arrogance will only leave us blind Unattended, without anyone to save our idle lives Will we find out that everything we know exists inside Of a fraction, of a fraction? And one by one the pieces fall again Wake up To the sound of this time bomb Wake up To its deafening song Wake up 'Cause you don't know what you've got until it's gone Until it's gone Wake up To the sound of this time bomb Wake up To its deafening song Wake up 'Cause you don't know what you've got until it's gone Until it's gone away One by one the pieces fall Until our pride defeats us all, yeah ♪ One by one the pieces fall (one by one the pieces fall) Until our pride defeats us all (defeats us all), yeah Oh Wake up To the sound of this time bomb Wake up To its deafening song Wake up 'Cause you don't know what you've got until it's gone Until it's gone Wake up To the sound of this time bomb Wake up To its deafening song Wake up 'Cause you don't know what you've got until it's gone Until it's gone away It's gone away
