A long time ago
In a galaxy far, far away
There was this boy
And all his heavy thoughts
He used to live in a nutshell
Closed in mind
Tough as well
But time passes by

I didn't know how to manage my life
I didn't know how hard I could rock
My eyes are now wide open
But my dreams ain't broken
This son of mars wants so much more

Once I had the blood and the power
I've got a brand new world to devour
Yeah I'm older
Experienced and wise
I gave myself a chance
Just let time go by

You can't hold the sands of time
But you gotta keep it in sight
While you walk around in circles
Time goes by

Time goes by

Time heals, time steals
Time kills the pain
It holds the loaded gun
Do not hesitate
Still you wait for your time to come
I bet your life's begun
Or you're already dead

I used to be in a box
Under lock and key
Wondering if I would ever do well
Now I'm dancing with the wolves
Ain't got nothing to prove
I'm on loose
Raising hell

Life runs faster and you're still crawling
While you're thinking about last night
Time goes by

Time goes by

Candy bars ain't that sweet no more
Your good ol' friends no longer knock at your door
Kids don't play the same way
Everything, everybody changes

Remember school
The most desirable hot girls you'd ever seen
Look at them now
Their bodies are all live proof of gravity

All good things must pass
Nothing lasts, not even love
Don't waste your life being afraid of the days
Time moves fast
The clock don't lie
Time goes by
