i see the anger in the back of your eyes
i know the vengeance running through your mind
you're up on the cross with a heart full of nails
hanging your head low whenever you fail
but you still keep standing still
and i believe now's the time to live
and there ain't a thing now that you can do
you expect everyone to have pity on you
nobody else can put their life in your hands
so get up and move while you still have the chance
you'll have your way some day
but you still keep standing still
and i believe now's the time to live
do what you do with the rest of your days
you had it all and you gave some away
it's not going to matter when you're dead and gone
you'll be rewarded for the good that you've done
you've got a lot to live for
you say you've been run through the lover's mill
but people are starving while you get your fill
there's no time for standing still
there's another void that you can fulfill
you'll have your way some day
you've got a lot to live for
