This is not just directed to you, it's directed to me
A dedication to how hard it can be
As times lapse, all things pass, all things change
And no it's never the same, it's never the same
Who ever would thought, that either you'd or I'd ever would've
Got caught just where we did up in this plot
And now that to reset the clock is not an option
Do we continue walking down this path or heed the caution
Yes I know that often it can feel as though you lost one
You're surrounded by all of these blossoming problems
The odds have gotten awesome and impossibly exhausting
Your hoping that they stop but ending has an evil cost, so, how come
It's looking rather doubtful for the outcome
You're trying to find that silver lining shining when the clouds come
The weak, the proud, voice it aloud, break down and shout some
You're only human and it's only normal feeling down some, now
I don't know why it unfolds the way it does
Or why it can never go back to how it was
Certainly eternity is not based on because
So until the final curtain all we're certain of is love
When it's all said and done, all's ended, all's left
The one moment, wall's closing in
There's no turning back, no escape
And if you don't know the way it's too late
It's time for you to wake up, wake up, wake up
It's time for you to wake up, wake up, wake up
It's time for you to wake up, wake up, wake up
No you'll never get it back, not never, ever, it's gone
♪
As time lapse, all things pass
All things change and no it's never the same, never the same
You were never dealt the cards you expected
What did you expect, you were young, living reckless
And when they catch up to you, who'd have guessed it
You wish you could go back with a new perspective
You stuck to the guns when a lot of men have failed
But sticking to the guns was like swallowing the barrel
Now if you call it quits you better've thought about it well
Cause call it what you will, we're not talking about a drill, this is real
And the weight'll get you down. You know it'll get ya
And you came too far to fall out the picture
But it's way too hard to crawl all the rest of the road
That you've been travelling on under pressure
Yes sir, this is what you love, it's what you been dreaming
Did that dream seem better while you were sleeping
I hope it didn't cost you your family or your freedom
For any reason, some things aren't worth leaving
When it's all said and done, all's ended, all's left
The one moment, wall's closing in
There's no turning back, no escape
And if you don't know the way it's too late
It's time for you to wake up, wake up, wake up
It's time for you to wake up, wake up, wake up
It's time for you to wake up, wake up, wake up
No you'll never get it back, not never, ever, it's gone
