Time's Ticking Away

We gave into our passions but were never satisfiedAnd all the public pressure made us only live a lieGave into scripting persons who never wished our bestHow much will we give in till we become what we detest ?So I've gotta say: time's ticking awayI say let's take success in our handsLet's start taking commandAll our short term pleasure is our driving force in lifeWhich leads us to more suffering, tragedy and viceEveryone's a victim, only few are safeSo we must take control before we become total slavesLet's start taking command of lifeWe're living this life like we watch tv, just seeI can't let this world react upon me, not meGrab a hold of opportunity at any cost
