Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't stop thinking of ways to get it all for you
Whatever it takes
I wanna make your wish come true
I can't wait 'till we wake up
Wanting nothin' new
As long as we're here
Together
Everybody's gotta draw their own line
But if we don't stop now, we never will
Opportunity's songs on the other side
But if we don't stop now, we never will
Everytime, Whenever you find it's never enough
It's never enough
More is an assassin
Now a better life
If we dont stop now, we never will
Ooh, Just to be with you
Ooh, Wanting nothin' new
Ooh, Just to be with you
Ooh, Wanting nothing new
Only you
Everybody's gotta draw their own line
But if we don't stop now, we never will
Opportunity's song's on the other side
But if we don't stop now, we never will
Everytime, Whenever you find it's never enough
Never enough
More is an assassin
Now a better life
If we dont stop now, we never will
Soon is the world will be ours
Soon we will reach for the stars
Everybody's gotta draw their own line
But if we don't stop now, we never will
Opportunity's song's on the other side
But if we don't stop now, we never will
Everytime, whenever you find it's never enough
Never enough
If more is an assassin
Now a better life
If we dont stop now, we never will
Everytime, whenever you find
It's never enough
Never enough
More is an assassin
Now a better life

Hey bro! Killer cover! Quick question, what do those hi hats consist of? They look like two crashes maybe 16s or 18s but I can't figure it out. Thanks man!
@OwenAssman
+Hayden MacMath Hey! It's a 18" AAX X-plosion crash on top with a 18" AAX Freq crash on the bottom! Not my ideal choice, but it's what I have. ;)
