Wasting away
Your drifting through life with an attitude
Take a look at yourself
And all that you have become
Pick up your feet, lace up those shoes
And it's just so simple when you're on a roll

But have you stopped to think
That you have no control?
When you're all alone, and on your own
Will it make a difference?
Will you even skip a beat?

Racing through life in the fast lane
Your heart will be beating
Your heart will be bleeding red
I won't stand by you
And watch you burn yourself all over again
Tracing your footsteps backwards
To the place we once called home

Do you remember?
Do you even care to try to get it right?
So drag your heels right through the mud
So that you can say that you've done all that you could

By a show of hands
How many of you have never sinned?
Then cast the first stone
I'm standing here
I'm living proof
If you just trust in me

Then you may see a beauty
I'm screaming out these words I speak
Take them to your heart
Or take them to your grave
Because in the end
Everything will slowly change
