The Final Countdown
4.
You've gone the distance
Experience many instance
There's nowhere left to go
Floating drifting, like a driftwood, flow
'Tis complicated, but don't you
Just hate what you've become? And you
The best is behind you; you've run past it
Sink to your knees and concede your defeat
You need a new reaction, a new revolution
Leaving is only the real solution
The bigger your lies gets to us all
The harder you will fall
This is as far as you can go
Pack your bags get ready to go
Leave the drag all behind
And then I know I'll be fine
The Final Countdown

Lives are in the making here
Hearts are in the waking here
That day inches near
For you, my dear, i might shed a tear
You hear the thundering hooves of
The crowd, congregating, sending you off
You hear the roaring cries from
The people, begging your departure be prompt
Hearts are racing, minds are at play
You looked on; nothing you can say
You are 'racing' wheeling down the tracks
The truth is: you run slower than the fags
Mighty undertaking here
This is the nightmare that you fear
Saints: Up and On
Our lives still go on
The Final Countdown

Oh what's wrong with you lately
Don't they treat you just and rightly
Did you tried to, tried to get a shot
Just go and give it all that you've got
You know what they say its always C'est la vie
Don't come running back to me
There's nothing there's only an empty heart
Bled dry with your words, stony and hard
You're been lucky, so strong, so proud
But now you are so wrong so loud
May angels take you away
From this place, Darryl, of the fey
Your time is running out
The rules the code you did flout
You're a wonder, mesmerising
I hope you're as happy as you're pretending
The Final Countdown

Monday, he's back from the dead
Raring to go, negative start to fade
Tuesday, he's shot in the face
But never mind now he's setting the trail ablaze
Wednesday, its getting more that he could take
Puts on his mask, deceive and fake
Thursday, the evils are haunting him
He could never wash his hands clean
Friday, life's for him is just a drag
Its futile to go on, its driving him mad
Saturday, is the day he's been waiting for
Tried as he might, no one to go out with him at all
Sunday, he's going to his church
Lamenting why God leaves him in a lurch
Straining his ears to hear any whispering cry
There was nothing. He heaved a sigh
The Final Countdown

He comes and he comes around again
To bring the masses lies, our ears in pain
Plonks beside, his power manifests
Wish I could shove the table up his ass
"Did you see me run?" Didn't I see you fall
"Did you see me, strong?" Didn't I hear you call
"Did you see me my might?" Didn't I hear you whine
"Did you see me shine?" I'm deaf and blind
You've reached the star, in your mind
You've tasted zenith, in place and time
But reality bites, and winds of change blow
Hate to say this, that I told you so
He goes and he goes off again
To a better place where he would begin
A new beginning new life new identity
Alas! This is your last ride in, accept reality
The Final Countdown

Hey there, why you look so sad
Was it something that I said
To you? Was it how you screw things up
Again for the last time and you're fed up
You loved to deal with lies
"Careful, it will burn you" the truth never dies
You would loved to be something
So high so proud so loud but you're nothing
You've been floored again
Wasting your time, carousel of pain
Its the sick cycle, you want to throw up
But its the late, the wrath has brimmed your cup
"It's ok, it's all right, I will go on"
It's time to fly it's your last song
"I will go on to be number one"
You would only if you're something to someone
