[Chorus 1]
It is the fire that lights itself
But it burns with a restless flame
The arrow on a moving target
The archer must be sure of his aim
It is the engine that drives itself
But it chooses the uphill climb
A bearing on magnetic north
Growing farther away all the time
[Bridge]
Can't stop moving
Can't stop moving
Can't stop
[Verse 1]
You may be right
It's all a waste of time
I guess that's just a chance I'm prepared to take
A danger I'm prepared to face
Cut to the chase
[Chorus 2]
It is the rocket that ignites itself
And launches its way to the stars
A driver on a busy freeway
Racing the oblivious cars
It's the motor of the western world
Spinning off to every extreme
Pure as a lover's desire
Evil as a murderer's dream
[Verse 2]
Young enough not to care too much
About the way things used to be
I'm young enough to remember the future
The past has no claim on me
[Verse 3]
I'm old enough not to care too much
About what you think of me
But I'm young enough to remember the future
And the way things ought to be
[Bridge]
Cut
Cut
[Outro]
Cut to the chase
You may be right
It's all a waste of time
I guess that's just a chance I'm prepared to take
A danger I'm prepared to face
Cut to the chase
What kind of difference can one person make?
Cut to the chase
