Handful of names
Gonna put them someplace safe
So I don't have to face another day, yeah
Been running on the side
It does not feel right
Cause I don't have the rush to take away, yeah
Over and over and over again, yeah again.
And these are the things that I want you to hear
Throw away though and replace it with fear
The time is now, the place is here.
The song that we wanted was sung by the free
The newspaper headlines and no melody.
The time is now, so sing it for me
Better get it right cause I can't start over
From the moment I'm awake, I think about the states
And whether I should just go back to sleep instead, yeah.
A reasonless mind, and at that place and time
I started learning how it feels to be alone
Over and over and over again, yeah again.
And these are the things that I want you to hear
Throw away though and replace it with fear
The time is now, the place is here.
The song that we wanted was sung by the free
The newspaper headlines but no melody.
The time is now, so sing it for me
You better get it right.
I know someday when we get old
We can talk about the day that I came home
And these are the things that I want you to hear
Throw away though and replace it with fear
The time is now, the place is here.
The song that we wanted was sung by the free
The newspaper headlines but no melody.
The time is now, so sing it for me
You better get it right.
Cause I can't start over.
