These cannon balls are crashing around me
I see the writing on the fucking wall
It's been like this for so long
And the change is coming at a crawl
I went to bang bang yeah ya got me
When the last chances slipped away
I can't rest like all the others
'Till I've said all I can say
Ghosts of the past, they haunt me
I recognize where I was wrong
And I was putting up with anger
I didn't know where it belonged
Though this cynicism stops us
From joining in on the parade
Do you dare to take your chances?
Are you feeling lucky today?
If we're right, we gotta fight
Yeah we can't afford to give it away
'Cause in the worst of times, the battle cries
Just got lost in the fray (hey! hey! hey!)
Fall back, get it on track
Yeah forget all mistakes of the past
You know it's gotten so bad
The time is now to say it
The fog started lifting slowly
You see a little more everyday
We've always had their numbers
We were sleeping, now we're wide awake
And it's a never ending story
The more that we give the less that we get
I have only asked for honesty
In exchange for blood and sweat
If we're right, we gotta fight
Yeah we can't afford to give it away
'Cause in the worst of times, the battle cries
Just got lost in the fray (hey! hey! hey!)
Fall back, get it on track
Yeah forget all mistakes of the past
You know it's gotten so bad
The time is now to say it
If we're right, we gotta fight
Yeah we can't afford to give it away
'Cause in the worst of times, the battle cries
Just got lost in the fray (hey! hey! hey!)
Fall back, get it on track
Yeah forget all mistakes of the past
You know it's gotten so bad
The time is now to say it
