Take It Back
Vitamin X Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Life stretched to extremes
Time too short, so it seems
Don't waste your time on useless schemes
Stay young and free to live your dreams

Dreams, man made to keep you blind
Don't buy that dream that blurs you mind
Don't wait too long cause you might find
That friends are no longer by your side

Make the most of your life,
Don't let it slip away
Now it's time to TAKE IT BACK, TAKE IT BACK
Real-life dreams, just make them true today
Now it's time to TAKE IT BACK

MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR LIFE




DON'T LET IT SLIP AWAY
NOW IT'S TIME TO TAKE IT BACK
