LYRICS
I watch it all change,
Take the news of the day
And throw it away
Time will kill all the pain,
Fate will cure the decay of all this blind ambition,
The greed brings us together
Stand up,
Aim true,
Keep heart,
The future looks to you
Every second you throw away,
Every minute of every day,
Don't get caught in a memory,
'Cause life won't wait for you,
No Life Won't wait for you my friend
I'm watching the change,
Who will carry the flame?
It all feels very strange
Dreams that men can be good,
Faith to live as we should and know we're all connected,
We give ourselves the power
Stay strong,
Stay true,
Be brave,
It all comes down to you
Every day that you wait, you're falling faster,
No slight of hand,
No twist of fate,
No ever after
When it's gone, it's gone,
I'll fight 'til the bitter end,
Life won't wait for you,
No, life won't wait for you, my friend
Life won't wait for you, my friend
Life won't wait for you, my friend
Life won't wait for you, my friend
Life won't wait for you, my friend
