lyrics

Take your clock and turn it back
Leave your future on the tracks
Take your money paint it black
Cause things will never change

Everything I see, that’s on my TV
Been running through my mind
But it keeps me on my feet
This dust in my eyes
It’s not gonna halt my survival
Looking down my street today
Don’t know what I saw
It won’t stop me anyway
When I know what I want
Those monsters in the night
I’ll keep them out of sight
The diplomats await my arrival

Take your clock and turn it back
Leave your future on the tracks
Take your money paint it black
Cause things will never change

There’s wailing in our ears, and overflowing tears
I’d hoped it’d never come down to this, no
But we won’t admit defeat
Or fall for the deceit
It seems as if this wave’s getting tidal
Holding down the fort today
You’ll find another straw
It leads you back on to the way
You know that you want
Those monsters in the night
Just keep them out of sight
The diplomats await your arrival

We don’t have no time to take time
It’s just another day on the line
You’ve left yourself with no other choices
So come together, raise up your voices

Take your clock and turn it back
Leave your future on the tracks
Take your money paint it black
Cause things will never change
