Lyrics A Loss for Words

A Loss for Words

Finite

Today you felt so numb.

All your nerves cam undone.

You're running to a halt.

Your days are much more finite.

They speed by like railway cars

You're screaming,

"I won't let tonight pass me by.

I won't see with paralyzed eyes.

No, I won't be a slave to time."

Tonight we fight back with swollen fists and swallowed pride.

Tonight we rock; we'll smash it up,

Shout at the moon, and laugh at ourselves.

Until the hand of fate takes it away we're staring life right in the face.

I won't let tonight pass me by.

I won't see with paralyzed eyes.

No, I won't be a slave to time.

I won't let tonight pass me by.

I won't see with paralyzed eyes.

No I won't, no, I won't because

time is so precious for us all.

Do you gauge your life by fleeting moments that pass you by?

Tonight we rock; we'll smash it up,

Shout at the moon, and laugh at ourselves.

Tonight we rock; we'll smash it up,

Sing with the moonlight.

I won't let tonight pass me by.

I won't see with paralyzed eyes.

No, I won't be a slave to time.

I won't let tonight pass me by.

I won't see with paralyzed eyes.

No I won't, no, I won't because

time is so precious for us all.

Time is so precious for us all.

I might not wake up tomorrow.

Time is so precious for us all.

I may not make it home tonight.
