Handful of names
Gonna put them someplace safe
So I don't have to face another day, yeah

Been running on the side
It does not feel right
Cause I don't have the rush to take away, yeah

Over and over and over again, yeah again
And these are the things that I want you to hear
Throw away though and replace it with fear
The time is now, the place is here

The song that we wanted was sung by the free
The newspaper headlines and no melody
The time is now, so sing it for me

Better get it right cause I can't start over

From the moment I'm awake, I think about the states
And whether I should just go back to sleep instead, yeah
A reasonless mind, and at that place and time
I started learning how it feels to be alone

Over and over and over again, yeah again
And these are the things that I want you to hear
Throw away though and replace it with fear
The time is now, the place is here

The song that we wanted was sung by the free
The newspaper headlines but no melody
The time is now, so sing it for me

You better get it right
I know someday when we get old
We can talk about the day that I came home

And these are the things that I want you to hear
Throw away though and replace it with fear
The time is now, the place is here
The song that we wanted was sung by the free
The newspaper headlines but no melody
The time is now, so sing it for me

You better get it right
Cause I can't start over
