No you can't go back
Or defy the clock
Brace your mind for impact
Let your soul absorb the shock
It's a turbulent
Unfamiliar atmosphere
Footprints in the garden
You're not the first one here

No, you don't have wings
That was just pretend
Blistered feet keep moving
Give your spirit to the wind
Mournful chimes ring true
Still a hopeful song resounds
Way down deep inside you
You can hear it even now

Breath in, breath out
Heart don't fail
Embrace the moment
Shadow of doubt
Never prevail
Alas, you know it

Now he's at your door
There's no place to hide
Pay the tax colector
'Cause he won't be denied
No, you can't return
To a world of innocence
Think of all you have learned
Time to take your medicine

Breath in, breath out
Heart don't fail
Embrace the moment
Shadow of doubt
Never prevail
Alas, you know it
