They say that we will never change (our lives have just begun)
We can't erase the wasted days (or run away)

The time has come for me
To move on with this life
Far away from you
Never to look back

They say that we will never change (our lives have just begun)
We can't erase the wasted days (or run away)

Old man turns and sighs
Life has passed him by
Then he wakes and cries
Life is so far gone

They say that we will never change (our lives have just begun)
We can't erase the wasted days (or run away)

You said time would ease the pain
It's not going away
Time will never ease the hunger of my soul
They won't let me go
It's not going away
This will never leave
From my face

They say that we will never change (our lives have just begun)
We can't erase the wasted days (or run away)

Speak up!
Speak for yourself
Never take life for granted
Speak up!
Speak for yourself
Never run away
