lyrics: J. Morse © 1986 On and on and on and on You see yourself sliding into a hole Before you know it you'll be gone Days and weeks and months go by And nothing improves, it's still the same So you sit in desperation, but unable to cry Maybe this secrecy you maintain Is part of your pride I don't know, but God I wish I did But if you're going to run and hide You better start doing it Before your chance is gone Before the break of dawn Start doing it right away I don't care what's going on But you can't go on being a pawn in the game You'd better get started, or it'll end up the same as before Dreams and schemes and plans and things Are knifing you between the shoulder blades Cause you never look over your shoulder when your conscience rings Words and phrases, lines and rhymes Pierce your ears and penetrate your brain And you cower behind dreams of better, more pleasant times But dreams are just illusions Hiding desperate lies I don't know about your dreams But if you're going to silence your cries You better start doing it Before your chance is gone Before the break of dawn Start doing it right away I don't care what's going on But you can't go on being a pawn in the game You'd better get started, or it'll end up the same as before Maybe this secrecy you maintain Is part of your pride I don't know, but God I wish I did But if you're going to run and hide You better start doing it Before your chance is gone Before the break of dawn Start doing it right away I don't care what's going on But you can't go on being a pawn in the game You'd better get started, or it'll end up the same as before On and on and on and on and on... |
