You got the word that I'm going down
Yeah it may be true
It's like twenty-four tons of hard hitting headache
When you realize that you're coming unglued

I've sown and you've sown the seeds of youth
Time won't and I don't conceal the truth

So get up and fly away
Or forever be in doubt
You know - saviors never cry
You're hot on the heels of hope and love
Dreams can never die
Tear down the walls you hide behind

There's just one thing in your life that you gotta do
You wanna break on through
Don't be kind to the core - easy to ignore
If your lips never move you're bound to lose the war

I know and you know - there's no use
Trying to hold back the years
Making a career out of hiding the truth

So get up and fly away
Or forever be in doubt
You know - saviors never cry
You're hot on the heels of hope and love
Dreams can never die
Tear down the walls you hide behind

A new day is born
You need to wake the dying
The hand that it's in is yours
