Tempus Fugit

Take your anger on the street

Don't consume it in your head

Let the world prove a little bit more

Just how mad it is

Turning tides I realized how

It happens to fast

One day feels like a revolution

Tomorrow comes

And you find out that you're stuck

So we'll fight back to keep it alive

Drifting through the night

Then we'll laugh about the old times

As if everything's allright

When their gods make it up

All the sheep will sell it out

Are we hoping

Are we accepting

Are we pretending

Are we the last ones to leave

Play the card inside your sleeve it's just a show

I know you know

When the last curtain falls

There's a last round of applause

Before we're gone

The jolly roger flies above

Like we're pirates out at sea

But this ship sinks as fast as a stone

I cannot believe

This same stage in pirate age was

Covered up with gold

Now it lays there like a forgotten

Relict of a time that no one recalls

So we'll fight back to keep it alive

Even if the rain

Washed the memories away like dirt

I still can see the stain

When the fog clears I bet

This will feel like home again

Are we hoping

Are we accepting

Are we pretending are

We the pawns on this board

But we've played this game before

It's just a show

I know you know

When the last curtain falls

There's a last round of applause

And then we're gone
