lyrics

Well tell me brother can you feel the way
That things are always slipping through our fingers and down the drain
And tell me don’t you want to find a way
To find a way to make it all work so we can say
That we went hard
That we did what we could

Because the time is always sliding past
And with it goes the willingness to keep a steady grasp
Of the things we really care about
The people and pursuits that give some meaning to the racing hours
But our time has come
And that time is now

It seemed those days were never-ending (oh darling)
But all our dreams were worth defending (this moment)
The moment that defines a life
A life lived in defiance and truth

I’ve got my anger and an amplifier
I’ve got the passion and I’ve put away the hours
I’m getting pressurized from all sides
From all these people thinking I should move on with my life
But they don’t know the drive
They don’t know what it takes

So boys let’s carry on
Because one day this will all be gone
We’ve got this moment and we’ve got to make it last
And feel it as it rushes past

No need to be so condescending
