Monument

It's Monday morning

And I would kill for a chance to drive

Get so far away from here with you my dear

That I'll never leave your side

Nobody knows the troubles I've seen

In a van, on a soapbox for the world to see

Miles away, and I wish this didn't mean so much to me

To be a monument for the rest of them

Miles away, and I wish this didn't mean so much to me

To be a monument for the rest of them

We're getting older

I've started to fear for my life

is this the way that it should be?

this whole thing's riding on me

it's been a long road so far

with nowhere to turn

There's no looking back from here

no more dwelling on my fears

Miles away, and I wish this didn't mean so much to me

To be a monument for the rest of them

Miles away, and I wish this didn't mean so much to me

To be a monument for the rest of them

Twenty bucks says you'll remember me

When you see me on your TV screen

It may be the first time

But it won't be the last time

(3x)

And I'll scream

so loud that everyone in this place

Will hear every word I say

'cause this is my time, this is my time to shine

let nothing stand in our way

(2x)

Twenty bucks says you'll remember me

When you see me on your TV screen

It may be the first time

But it won't be the last time
