Summer was shaken away like sand from a beach towel...
2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song If I get it all down on paper, it's no longer inside of me, Threatening the life it belongs to And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd Cause these words are my diary, screaming out loud And I know that you'll use them, however you want to
But you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable, And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table No one can find the rewind button now
"the passengers are taking a vote if they should try and take over the plane or not." [Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, 10/28/01]
the potential of people runs deeper than deep for people have climbed all the mountains so steep it was then that they said that the sky was the limit but ask, where are we now the moon has been conquered and we're looking to mars
so what is impossible in the eyes of men is no more than a guess of the limits we have and these guesses of limits have never been true so if there're no limits to what man can do how do we know whether to risk it or not cause we'll inevitably miss every shot we dont take those shots that are limitless
so what sign are you waiting for to tell you to take your shot because each of your untaken shots is one only you could have taken so live on with the notion that there will always be others to take the risks for you but be prepared to know that you will never be great your legacy will die so i'm telling you now it is never too late
