How could I forget the dreams we had And the promises we made to ourselves Memories of brighter days Remembrance of another way Forgotten for ages, lost in time No cross to mark the place they lie Take it back, take it back To how it used to be Take it back, take it back The life that was always yours and never give it away The years go by And we still wonder if there's more to this, more to this Now we wave goodbye And there was always something more to this, more to this They say that time runs like sand And so does your life Tossing and turning for the sake of nothing Struggling to survive How can we live on if it's always the same When we are starved, fucked and caught in routine Caught in routine The colours fade away Leaving nothing but the bitter taste of regret Time's up, no chance to reset Life ends and we all pay the debt Take it back, take it back To how it used to be Take it back, take it back The life that was always yours and never give it away The years go by And we still wonder if there's more to this, more to this Now we wave goodbye And there was always something more to this, more to this
