I'm running out of time Forced to decide To choose the beat path Or to feel the wrath When I take a different ride There's nothing in this world That you have to do To be frightened by tradition Is a cheap excuse I, I realize I, I sympathize But we can't live with those lies And you won't always be sure When your judgments seem pure Every choice you make Could be a mistake But at least they were yours Complain that you can't win When you've chosen to fit in Responsibility's gone I know that's wrong Conformity can be a sin Now I judge on my own scales So I know when I have failed The decisions are mine I'll take my time Only it will surely tell I'm running out of time
