It's not easy, enjoying life when someone's keeping score
It's not easy, working hard when you don't know what it is you're working towards
We struggle, and we're forced to stay on some so-called right track
And we're in trouble, oh we're bearing a world of pressure on our backs
Hook:
But don't count us out just yet
We're not done fighting yet
We're not as helpless as we seem
We're getting older, and the weight just seems to grow and grow and grow
And I swear our education will be our damnation, oh we're crippled by the money that we owe
Growing up gambling, in a market of on and off opportunities
We feel so feeble, as we watch the American dream get shipped overseas
Hook:
But don't count us out just yet
We're not done fighting yet
We're not as helpless as we seem, oh no
‘Cause we're not the kind to fall
Someday we'll own it all
I swear we're somewhere in between
Oh yeah, we're just somewhere in between
Bridge:
Oh the clocks keep ticking along
And arm in arm what we are is strong
As long as we're doing something we're doing just fine
The days keep rolling along
But the wait is taking too long
Hand over the keys to the world ‘cause it's our time (it's our time)
Oh the clocks keep ticking along
And arm in arm what we are is strong
As long as we're doing something we're doing just fine
The days keep rolling along
But the wait is taking too long
Hand over the keys to the world ‘cause it's our time (it's our time)
Oh the clocks keep ticking along
And arm in arm what we are is strong
As long as we're doing something we're doing just fine
The days keep rolling along
But the wait is taking too long
Hand over the keys to the world ‘cause it's our time (it's our time)
