Song Lyrics

I can't remember what anymore
I can't remember what it's for
I've got no strength to carry on
But still I ask myself just where do we belong?

No sense in mourning of that which is gone
You've got to give up hope and just carry on
So now it's time to take control of your life
Choose your side and your weapon tonight

(Chorus)
It's time to cast away these chains that confine us
We've got to see beyond the wreck of today
It's time to leave behind the states that defined us
We've got to realize that this is our way
(/Chorus)

A sense that something's moving
That something new is on the rise
And what would happen if the forces rushing in
Were to collide?

No sense in mourning all of that which is gone
You've got to give up hope and just carry on
So now it's time to take control of your life
Choose your side and your weapon tonight...

And everybody knows, they know it's true
There's nothing left here now for me or for you
I've seen this all before
You think that you're so strong
I know that you're so wrong
But still it will be all right

And in those moments when you're aching to follow
Just don't you think to walk away
Just don't you think to even pray

It's like you're sitting there
Just watching them moving
Moving further down the line...
