We could say it’s just how it is
And how it always will be
And believe, things will never change
As far as we can see
It’s a disaster and it doesn’t matter
Well I disagree
A ray of hope remains, if we take the reins we’ll arrive
Eventually

Keep all the lights on in the streets of Babylon
Then we’ll just dig for some more
Pull back the curtain ’cause one things for certain
Action speaks louder than war

Look around there’s no time left to stall
You’ve got to stand up
While you can, don’t miss the call

Hold on here we go
Where we stop nobody knows
Breath and count to five
Live while you’re still alive
Right before your eyes
Your best laid plan up and dies
Cleverly disguised
The bounty materialized

Now we’re moving fast, we’re picking up on speed
We got the energy
Creating fast, as we tunnel deep
And no time to think
Here we just react
To the things we need
Hold on to your world

Look around there’s no time left to stall
You’ve got to stand up
While you can, don’t miss the call

To live just in your mind
Is some kind of crime
Stuck in your station
In isolation
Never too late for beginning
To set your captive free

Tonight the moment has arrived
To live like we’re still alive

Wake up and look around there’s no time left to stall
You’ve got to stand up while you can don’t miss the call
It’s time to end the debate don’t hesitate this time
C’mon on and take a stance don’t miss your chance to stand up right

I am an avid Mac-user, nerd, musician, freelancer, and gamer. Ask me about my collection of M:TG cards! I've also got a horrible habit of needing the absolute newest technological wonder, whether it's stable or not. If they made a home-version of the LHC, I'd have 2. Additionally, I've been playing music for the better part of 14 years. I'm self-taught on piano, guitar, trumpet, trombone, sax, clarinet, bass, drums and other percussion, and around 10 other instruments. I also spend quite a bit of time dabbling in synthesizers, sequencers, and samplers. I'm also founder of Quotelicious where I collect and share the quotes I love.
