You taught me all you thought that
I'd need to know
And then you pa**ed away
And then you pa**ed away
What is my destination?
What will become of me
On that cold day?
On that cold day
Can't ignore these messages from voices in my head
Warning me I've much to do before I wake up dead
Stand for something now
Or fall for anything
The time has come to shout loud
I won't go quietly
Won't be a face in the crowd
I'll stand defiantly
Keep on beating me down
You can't beat me out of me
Tomorrow is promised to no man
When d**h comes calling
We must take his hand
We must take his hand
Don't wait until the final hour
It may never arrive
If that's the plan
If that's the plan
Can't ignore these messages from voices in my head
Warning me I've much to do before I wake up dead
Stand for something now
Or fall for anything
The time has come to shout loud
I won't go quietly
Won't be a face in the crowd
I'll stand defiantly
Keep on beating me down
You can't beat me out of me
Come on
I hear a distant sound
I know we all fall down
And one day, I will return to the ground
I scream the truth that I have found:
The time is now
