Objects at rest, remain where they were set down It's easy to wait, it's harder to chase it down It's the law of the jungle, it's all in your hands Can't break and run, til you learn how to stand You'll never get it back if you stand around and watch it die Staring at mirror like a window you can't see thru Starting back me like there's something I'm supposed to do Where's your inspiration? What you gonna change? Who'll pull the plow when you finally take the reigns? You can't raise it up, if you stand around and watch it die I won't, I won't fade away I won't, I won't fade away While you stand around and watch it die Wanna talk it out, you're the only one talking now Taker keeps taking, but the giver's given out Every word's a brick, you're building up a wall Asking me for answers, but you heard em all You can't raise it up, baby if you stand around and watch it die I won't, I won't fade away I won't fade away I won't, I won't fade away While you stand around and watch it die
