It’s time to leave!”It’s time for me, it’s time to beIt’s time to live and love and giveNo time to wallow or grovelIt’s chapter two of David’s epic novelWe only get one go aroundSelf-loathing, dead and gonePulled the trigger, moving on… (Hook revised)We keep on running, we keep on runningJust keep on running…(Chant)Show ‘em what you gotIt ain’t over ’til you say it isShow ‘em that you’re not afraidTo stand and change the way it is
