Think of all the people you have met
I think of all the ones I havent yet
when all my friends come around
I dont feel so lost, I feel so found
but time wont slow down-and its telling me to go
Think of all your heroes, whove lost their way
you would have died to meet them in their day
Seems theyre human after all and sometimes we all must fall
flat on our face
So Ill pick myself back up by my bootlace
I cant seem to find myself
Though the signs are all around
They dont lead anywhere
I can go to some place new
Where the streets dont know my name
Find the strength to get me there
seems the streets of this town
they don't want me around
they don't like my kind
so I'll move to a place where the grass is greener
Think of all the love that you have lost
and all the bridges burned, you cannot cross
life is much too short to gladly suffer fools- or follow all the rules
So Ill speak my mind, and pay the dues
Find the strength to get me there
