Proclaiming Cadence - The Lifetouch lyrics
rate meThe days burn away like sparklers on the 4th of July.<br />
And I flat out refuse to grow up and be used like you.<br />
<br />
My dreams pass me by and the time with a sigh it keeps burning, burning away.<br />
My heart beat speeds up and gets quicker and stronger and faster and faster and faster until... <br />
<br />
Everything stops... <br />
<br />
Everything stops now.<br />
Can't we go back now?<br />
At least slow down now?<br />
Just slow down a bit... <br />
<br />
Say so long.<br />
Plant your lips in the past, this bliss simply can't last.<br />
The temperatures rising and summer is calling so don't be surprised when it's time... <br />
<br />
To step up, and speak up.<br />
And they'll say sit down, and shut up.<br />
And then we'll step out, and scream out... <br />
<br />
Breathe like you're twelve leagues under water.<br />
Savor each breath, treat it like a ghost.<br />
Keep it up darling 'cause today's a day worth livin'.<br />
Don't blow it off with a shrug; just like the undertow's tug we're sinkin'... we're sinkin'.
