  • It's feeling like the time's run out

  • But the hourglass just flipped itself over again

  • The sun is slowly sinking down

  • But on the other side a new day waits to begin

  • If you dare to believe in life

  • You might realize that there's no time for talking

  • Or just wait around while the innocent die

  • No more, we're gonna lose everything

  • If we believe all the lies

  • If we believe all the lies

  • You may fall but I swear that I'll help you believe

  • You may fall but I swear that I'll help you believe

  • I may fall but I swear that I'll help you believe
