&quot;It is not in our greatest glory in never falling, but in rising everytime we fall&quot;<br /> &quot;I use to want the words &quot;she tried&quot; on my tombstone, now I want &quot;she did it&quot;

We can never really keep track of time
it's really hard to keep track
it's something our world needs
but something that we lack

We loose ourselves in our world
and with our daily lives
but we never do keep track
I wonder how we thrive

One day we will run out
we will have no more time
what will we say then
when we have performed such a crime

until that day we'll continue
to waste the time we were given
however will not notice
we will just keep livin'
