Paroles de The Present Not The Past

I am forsaken and down
Can't catch my breath
Condemned, always to wander
Though I couldn't care less
Strange how some people fall to the side
And there's some disappear
Oh I try to remember
In this dark atmosphere

Come on and wake me up
I won't look back
You know I understand

Live the present not the past
Wisdom is king
The Joker he laughed
Dead is such a long long time
Won't get away
All of mankind

I met a man who was sure
Could tell me a lot
His price: one glass of water
And the truth he'd unlock
When you think you've got everything
That's your first big mistake I won't look back
You know I understand

Live the present not the past
Wisdom is king
The Joker he laughed
Dead is such a long long time
Won't get away
All of mankind
Year by year they go so fast
And everything's
A blurred photograph
Day by day's a real hard climb
Getting nowhere
In fact it's a crime

Come on and wake me up
I won't look back
You know I understand

Live the present not the past
Wisdom is king
The Joker he laughed
Dead is such a long long time
Won't get away
All of mankind
Year by year they go so fast
And everything's
A blurred photograph
Day by day's a real hard climb
Getting nowhere
In fact it's a crime
