When I was young my father would say

Time bends it's back for no one my son

And bright skies they only fool a man who are blind

So look through the smile and see what's behind

Not that you left, all my dreams - drifted away

I try to move past but life's not the same



[Pre-chorus]

If I only knew then

The things I know now

I'd take it all back

And turn it around



[Chorus]

Cause I have to much to say and more to give today

This is no life to live (you gotta give)

Cause I have to much to say and more to give today

This is no life to live (you gotta give)

Must be a better way

A better way



Now I sit here in a cage all my own

It's a new life, it's a brand new home

It's made out of steel, it's built out of fear

It's closed up to you and it's part of the deal



[Pre-chorus]



[Chorus]



[Bridge]

Turn back the clock

And put it all back

I'll make the time last.



[Chorus]
