Shadows Fall - The Greater Depression lyrics

All he ever wanted was to skip across the water Tick tock the clock is getting faster Vicariously Lives through the dusty Pebbles while thrusting Them onto the pond So very trusting Betting the calm is strong And won't let them drown He's got to swallow his pride He followed horrible advice And hollowed his account With a roll of the dice twice Now the market's a rollercoaster ride He's back to the beginning With no retirement in sight Tick tock the clock is getting faster Can't sit back And watch the world move backwards He's got to be moving forwards He's got to be moving faster Today he's older Tomorrow he's older than today He's got to get bolder before he's older And throws his life away Those damn revelations Running around his head Increasing frustration And motivation Look he's scared to d**h He's got to do something today Before the terrorists start attacking Before foreign policy instigates another Iraqi With a suitcase who wants to blow himself up for Allah Better to die chasing a dream than regret not trying at all Tick tock the clock is getting faster Can't sit back And watch the world move backwards He's got to be moving forwards He's got to be moving faster Pa**es time to forget time is pa**ing him by Tick tock the clock is getting faster Can't sit back And watch the world move backwards He's got to be moving forwards He's got to be moving faster Tick tock the clock is getting faster
