Ill never forget when we started out The beat of the drum, a face in the crowd Its better this way, its better this way How far weve come, now not a soul can change Remember the road running under our feet Wed shoot for the stars but wed aim at the trees Its better this way, its better this way Gambling with life, it was our turn to play Its time Only when you look forward can you see behind We bought the ticket so well take the ride Every trial and every test Wed drive to the east and wed fly to the west Just running away, just running away We cant be different cause theyre all the same Every night that wed ever start And every beat of every heart Is running away, just running away Catching our breath at the end we could say Its time Only when you look forward could you see behind Every taste we could get was just sweet sublime Holding onto the moment we let go of life We bought the ticket so well take the ride Day after day in the light Were glowing in the dark Standing was the sketch Where falling was an art We lost ourselves to find That somewhere down the line Its time Day after day in the light Were glowing in the dark Standing was the sketch Where falling was an art We lost ourselves to find That somewhere down the line Its time For some its a god, for me its a fact Wed make a mistake and try to take em all back Its better this way, its better this way Out of the grind and then into the grave Its time Only when you look forward can you see behind Every taste we could get was just sweet sublime Holding onto the moment we let go alive We bought the ticket so well take the ride We bought the ticket so well take the ride
