The More Things Change Lyrics & Chords By Gut Feeling

in these numbered days
I know

if the clock runs out on us
the curtain call, if our time is up
did we wait for better days?
to turn and find that it's too late
did we choose to wander blind?
close your eyes on borrowed time
breathe in, count down the days
breathe out and it's too late

these desperate days pass us by
we breathe, we sleep, survive, we stand by
we fill our aching hearts with empty words and false starts
our rage and anger fall apart

but I'm not a number
and I'm not the same
and if we're born to suffer
then I'm not the same

how does it feel to know?
we stood aside and watched it all go
we've waited long enough, as the world burns down around us
their time runs out, the time is now

will you drown in regret?
no I'm not the same
close your eyes to forget?
no I'm not the same

and if it all crashes down on us
I won't give in, I won't give up

so if the clock runs out on us
and all their promises turn to dust
let's live and breathe for better days
before we find that it's too late
trust in what we're fighting for
believe our lives mean something more
breathe in, count down the days
breathe out and it's too late
