Marching in Time

So many lives marching in time
Move to the beat of the old and the blind
Under the skin, hollow within
Sift through the ashes we've all left behind

Oh please, promise me
I'd do anything

I'd do anything

Don't let this cold world change you
Don't ever go astray, and don't you
Fail to keep on giving
Don't fail to show your strength, no
Like so many lives marching in time

Never let go, hold on to hope
Know in your heart that you'll never be alone
I know you will see if you believe
The more that you give, then the less you'll ever need

Oh please, promise me
You're my everything

Don't let this cold world change you
Don't ever go astray, and don't you
Fail to keep on giving
Don't fail to show your strength, no
Like so many lives marching in time

Don't ever forget
This world's not claimed you yet
And all you've come to be
So go in peace

So am I
I'm worn and I'm tired
Take your life
And go and thrive

Don't let this cold world change you
Don't ever go astray and don't you
Fail to keep on giving
Don't ever lose your strength, no

Don't let this cold world change you
Don't ever go astray, and don't you
Fail to keep on giving
Don't fail to show your strength, no
