Time to Move On
Useless ID Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's time to open up your eyes
I think it's really time to understand it can't
You see you are the only one who is playing
I don't really think that you want to use a sharp knife to cut off your standards
But I feel you know it's time to do it
So take, take the blame
Don't try to run away
A different game you have got to try it anyway
You have got nothing to lose
Don't be so confused
And still you want to give up
Cause you can't take it anymore
Feel safer on higher ground
What's been lost can't be found again.
You think you fall straight to where you belong,
It's an illusion but you are to dumb to know it
Maybe someday you will learn your lesson




Maybe some day you will wake up find you are wrong,
Hold your breath and do it!
