lyrics

And all at one once you’re all alone, don’t know how far that distance goes.
You never lost just left behind, you never found that change of mind.
Well now it’s time to raise your head -
and not believe a word that’s said, cause it’s all tangled, torn in shreds and the simple truth is all pretend when it’s all up to you

Chorus 1
The sad little people with the happy pictures
Sitting on the fence thinking with your fingers
30 years later still it’s now or never
You’re gonna die thinking you can live forever

I’ve been waiting for you to make some sense, that’s but a joke at my expense. I listen close I never hear, but still I know the sound i fear.
Well now it’s time to show your face -
Cause all you do is all you waste and how you live is how you fake and what you fixed did never break, I’ll leave it up to you

Repeat chorus 1

All at once I’m not alone, I know how far that feeling goes
I never lost just changed my mind, I never felt so far behind
Well now it’s time to raise the dead - I don’t believe a word that’s said, cause it’s all tangled torn in shreds and the simple truth is complicated when it’s not up to me.

Chorus 2
The angry little man with the void opinion, sitting on his hands and pointing fingers, 30 years ago I would live forever.
I guess I’ll die thinking that it’s now or never.

I’m gonna die thinking I could live forever
