Do you have a good feel of this place yet?

Ever had a good listen to these walls?

Take a good look around you

Quick, before time takes it all


So hurry, get up

Have a good laugh, sing your song

Because I'll tell you right now

It won't be like this for long


The years will grow shorter

You'll start to lose touch

With the ones you promised forever

But you won't mind it all that much


Hold on to this youth

For as long as it lasts

Because the clock is catching up

And it's catching up fast


Would you run like the wind

To rewind back the years

To remember their voices

And face all your fears?


Or live with a dark shadow of regret

Constantly looming above your bed

Filled with all the beautiful things

You always wished you could've said


Don't fret now, there's still time

Take a good look around you

And remember what I've said:

They only thing stopping you is the voice inside your head.
