Lyrics[]
You can call me a loser Call me a fool Tell me I'm crazy You can send me back to school But I've got my reasons And it's right for a change Time keeps moving on But I got to turn the page No more running Time to face the task This ship is sinking Untie me from the mast Moving forward One foot on the gas Cause you can't touch the future If you're sleeping with the past There's no hard labor No blood, sweat and tears Can take you to heaven Or wash away your fears So don't try and fight it When it's your destiny And there ain't no better thing Than being what you want to be Goodbye worries Indecision's gone I've got what I need To carry me along Crossing the border I see that greener grass You can't touch the future If you're sleeping with the past Come the morning Well I know I'm gonna feel the same Cause I heard the warning I'm not gonna let it get to me again Woo-hoo So it's no more running Time to face the task This ship is sinking Untie me from the mast Moving forward One foot on the gas But you can't touch the future If you're sleeping with the past Good-bye worries Indecision's gone I've got what I need To carry me along Crossing the border I see that greener grass You can't touch the future If you're sleeping with the past Oh, if you're sleeping with the past
