Ohhh Ohhh You can't keep the past Collected in an hourglass You can't watch the waves Climb higher as the levee breaks We're gonna learn to swim Survive among the monsters in the deep We're so much closer, closer than you think Ohhh Ohhh You can't let the peak Slip away and out of reach You can't let the wind Throw you off the mountain We're gonna set our course And thrive against the ever-shrinking odds We're so much closer, closer than you think One step ahead, never say quit The future is what we make of it The truth is not a hidden text Lost in the fires of generations past We're gonna tear it up and shout Goodbye to all these rituals of fear We're so much closer, closer than you think Ohhh, the future is Ohhh, what we make of it Ohhh, let go of the past Ohhh, break the hourglass
