Lyrics

Take The Stage

Looking at a new view on a new day
Walking up a new road wearing new clothes
Telling everybody, everybody I meet
Brother I'm ready, sister I'm headed home

Thinking 'bout this old world
Crumbling and a-stumbling with age
And the new world waiting in the wings
Ready to take the stage

Thinking 'bout the fires burning all around
Knowing it's the fear and anger in our hearts
Burning our home down
So many dying (so many dying)
Dying of thirst
Love is the water we all need right now

Thinking 'bout this old world
Crumbling and a-stumbling with age
And the new world waiting in the wings
Ready to take the stage

Looking at a new sky, a new dawn
Walking up a new road wearing new shoes
Telling everybody (telling everybody)
Everybody I meet
Brother we're ready, sister we've paid our dues

Thinking 'bout this old world
Crumbling and a-stumbling with age
And the new world waiting in the wings
Ready to take the stage

Thinking 'bout the fires burning all around
Knowing it's the fear and anger in our hearts
Burning our home down
So many dying (so many dying)
Dying of thirst
Love is the water we all need right now
Thinking 'bout this old world
Crumbling and a-stumbling with age
And the new world waiting in the wings
Ready to take the stage

Ready to take the stage

Ready
