V1
NEVER SEEN A MESS LIKE THIS
NOT A WORLD SO MEAN
AT THE SEAMS SO STRESSED
HERE WE ARE IN A HURRICANE
JUST SWIRLING AROUND
NO WAY TO SUSTAIN
-
WE CAN SEE IT, IN A CYNICAL WAY
OR WHERE MANY STAND
WHERE ANXIETY LANDS
NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH
SOME RUN AND HIDE
SAY ENOUGH'S, ENOUGH
ALL TO MUCH

OH OH OH
V2
NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS
THOUGHT WE'D SPIN THE WHEEL
AND THEN FALL IN FEAR
LOOKIN' BACK DID WE RUN THE RISK
OR CHECK IT TWICE
BEFORE JUMPIN' IN

SOMETIMES IN A CHANGING WORLD
GOTTA CROSS THE LINE
THAT BEING FREE DEFINES
UNDER NEATH THE SCRUTINY
WE'RE JUST A SCARED AND COWERING
SOCIETY
C)
NEVER, EVER
LIFE IS MADE TO FLY
NEVER, EVER
TO FALL'S NOT FAR BEHIND
HOLD ON TO THE POWER
OF SYNCHRONICITY INSIDE
IT'S THERE INSIDE
OH OH OH

SLEEP MY FRIEND
LIKE A LONELY SOLDIER
CAUSE IN THE END YOU WILL FIND
YOUR EYES WILL OPEN
AND YOU'LL BE WISER
THE TRUTH SURVIVES
THOUGH AT TIME IT HIDES

IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT
YOU'LL HEAR THE VOICES
A PLACE IN TIME
SOULS TOUCHED AGAIN
THE PAST REMEMBERED THROUGH WORDS NOW SPOKE:
WITH AN ANGRY CRY THE FIGHT BEGINS
AND IN THE TEARS THE WORLD STARTS AGAIN
AS THE OLD WAYS END - LIFE IS REBORN

NEVER, EVER
LIFE IS MADE TO FLY
NEVER, EVER
TO FALL'S NOT FAR BEHIND
NEVER, EVER
LET FREEDOM OUT OF SITE
HOLD ON TO THE POWER
OF SYNCHRONICITY
IT'S THERE INSIDE

OH OH OH
