Time Goes By Lyrics

We've been doing this for a while now

Same old speeches, same old hate

Same old faces, turning grey

We've thinking this way for a while now

Nothing ever changes

It only ever stays the same

We turn our backs on the honest

And everything that was promised

Everything's good

Never been better

World on fire

Everything's fine

We've been doing this for a while now

Maybe we're the problem

Maybe we're to blame

Everybody thinks that they're the hero

They only see the dark on the other side

Do you see the light

Do you face the world with open eyes

Let the hands of fate decide

As the endless, idle march of time goes by

Will you find a hill on which to die

Blinded by another's lie

The endless, idle march of time goes by

The time goes by

The time goes by

The time goes by

They've been planning this for a while now

A few chess pieces, moved in place

Little by little, day by day

Lessons we learned are forgotten

The little we earn, it is turned into nothing

Pawn in a game and it's gotten so cold that

Whatever we plant doesn't grow

They've been running this for a while now

Give them one last moment

It all falls into place

Everybody thinks that they're the hero

They only see the dark on the other side

Do you see the light

Do you face the world with open eyes

Let the hands of fate decide

As the endless, idle march of time goes by

Will you find a hill on which to die

Blinded by another's lie

The endless, idle march of time goes by

The time goes by

The time goes by

The time goes by

It's a long, long road with many turns

Snaking out a path to who knows where

We are strong, gonna fight 'til the end

Keep on pushing through the turns and the bends

The winds of change blow wild and free

Follow them now, wherever they lead

The coming storm and the rising tide

We've got the wisdom of our spirit guide

They knock us down, we get back up

They got their money, but we got the love

We're winning back our promised land

Oh won't you take my hand

And watch the time go by

Come on and take my hand

And watch the time go by

Oh

Watch the time go by

Come on and take my hand

Oh

Watch the time go by

Come on and take my hand

Oh

Watch the time go by
