Oh we're dying we're dying the slowest of deaths

Sad to say that this is the end and you know

Oh we're dying we're dying the slowest of deaths

So I give way

She comes with expert timing

(This is the day she lured me to)

Her sharpened shears press the life line dry.

(This is the way the strings were cut)

I'm minus protest. I've seen this day, It's all arranged

I am I am not afraid of slow death

(Oh we're dying we're dying a slow death, sad to say that this is the end my friend)

It's all arranged

So move along like we're turning the page.

That we are merely improve of blood and cells

The fact we have the gift of dreaming is incredibly presumed

It's wrongly assumed that there's no

There's no equal exchange

For us to receive something else must give way.

(So I give way)

Oh we're dying we're dying the slowest of deaths

(She comes with expert timing)

(This is the day she lured me to)

Sad to say that this is the end and you know

(Her sharpened shears press the life line dry.)

(This is the way the strings were cut)

Oh we're dying we're dying the slowest of deaths

(She comes with expert timing

Her sharpened shears press the life line dry)

So move along like we are turning the pages

Move along like we are finding the next great adventure

This is it.

How could I foresee?

It's more real than I ever dreamed

Take my hand, you're a part of this

Though you tried to place holes in my guard

So move along like we are turning the pages

This is the way the strings were cut

I am not in awe

This has all been arranged

I knew a day like this would surface

And now you confront me?

I made this right.

There's no shame

I lived for the moments that couldn't be ignored

A new strand is spun, measure and cut

A new strand is spun, measure and cut.

So move along like we are turning the pages

This is the way the strings were cut

I am not in awe

This has all been arranged

So move along like we are finding the next great adventure

I knew a day like this would surface

And now you confront me?

I made this right.

There's no shame I lived for the moments that couldn't be ignored.

Steady your heart baby this one it might hurt

Steady your heart baby this one it might hurt

This whole thing is real

This whole thing is real

We make the day, a new horizon is born.

Move along like we're having our say

We choose our fates. We make our dreams.

We choose our fates. We make our dreams.

We choose our fates. We make our dreams.

And we make this Real
