When I was young my father would say
Time bends it's back for no one my son
And bright skies they only fool a man who are blind
So look through the smile and see what's behind
Not that you left, all my dreams - drifted away
I try to move past but life's not the same

[Pre-chorus]
If I only knew then
The things I know now
I'd take it all back
And turn it around

[Chorus]
Cause I have to much to say and more to give today
This is no life to live (you gotta give)
Cause I have to much to say and more to give today
This is no life to live (you gotta give)
Must be a better way
A better way

Now I sit here in a cage all my own
It's a new life, it's a brand new home
It's made out of steel, it's built out of fear
It's closed up to you and it's part of the deal

[Pre-chorus]

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Turn back the clock
And put it all back
I'll make the time last.
