lyrics

Sit and wait in silence
With all the will take in its guidance
Its hard to speak when all the chemicals retreat
To let the heart resume its beat
To Close
To always let it go

Sink into a mine field
And seek for all the life sealed
And its time to take the next step towards
A chance to turn this world up on its head
Right now
There is nobody else

Its all a game
We must have patience
And calm the urges now until it’s time
To strive for greatness and free your true will

Needs of all the old souls
Grieve to them to let go
You must inspire a nation to uphold
The aspirations of the core
Right Now
There is nobody else

Its all a game
We must have patience
And calm the urges now until it’s time
