there's trouble on the rise--you can see it in the eyes of the livin'
there's an order to defy--there's a room at the back of your mind
word gets out--what's it all about
some take it in and some can do without
don't hang out in the shadow of a doubt
it's time you split before they sign you out
they'll have you sing the blues. take a look behind ya
take it on the run
take a look behind ya
look into the risin' sun
you can dance
you can sing
but it doesn't mean a thing without rhythm
you can slip--slide--stumble through the rest of your life
time won't stop--never gonna stop ya
you push the limit 'til the day you drop
time don't stop--race against the clock
you shun the risk--can you stand the shock
you got a lot to lose. take a look behind ya
take it on the run
take a look behind ya
look into the risin' sun
take a look behind ya
take it as it comes
take a look behind ya
don't forget the things you done
you can run--you can hide but you never put aside what you're feelin'
keep your balance--keep your stride--let it run through the heart of your life
time don't stop--ready or not
you've got to give it everything you got
life don't stop--take it to the top. you miss a step feel the anchor drop
it all comes back to you.
