Times are far between
And few, I bet
We can look upon our
Lives without regret

Of all the things I have done
You think I'm proud of
Everyone without exception

Till you make your
Peace with yesterday
You'll never build a future
I swear by what I say

Whatever penance you do
Decide what it's worth to you
And then respect it

However long it will take
To weather your mistakes
Why not accept it

My hands, for now, are tied
I'm a body frozen
I'm a will that's paralyzed
When will you ever set aside
Your pain and misery

No matter how I beg
No matter how I wish or plead
You'll never be more than alive
You'll never do more than
Survive until you expect it

Do you want to build
A world with our lives
You better soon decide
Or you can forget it

My hands, for now, are tied
I'm a body frozen
I'm a will that's paralyzed

Until you drop that heavy
Baggage you're dragging behind
There won't be room for us
To both go this ride
