Live Forever

the minutes keep on comin’, they always keep you runnin’
so far so fast you felt your own pulse thunderin’ in your ear
you thought you were so clever, you said you’d live forever
while every step you took cut like a knife and cut from your life a year
Ch:
take my hand, step to the beat this way
walk with me into the light of day
come the rain, come the shine, we’re gonna beat the sun to the horizon
we’ll see the world from up high and then die like everybody else
outside there’s a war now, don’t you stray too far now
lest your maker should take your hand and lay you down to sleep
sit down and listen to me, don’t play around with eternity
there’ll be time for layin down, when the reaper comes to reap
look at the things around you, what do you wanna hold onto
take a look at your hand, see how it fits in mine
hear the words that I speak moving along with your heartbeat
hear the sound of our names echoing through time
