You taught me all you thought that I need to know
And then you passed away
And then you passed away
What is my destination?
What will become of me on that cold day?
On that cold day.
Getting all these messages from voices in my head
Warning me how much to do before I wake up dead
Stand for something now
Or fall for anything
The time has come to shout loud
I won't go quietly
Won't be a face in the crowd
I'll stand defiantly
Keep on beating me down
You can't beat me out of me
Tomorrow is promised to no man
When death comes calling we must take his hand
we must take his hand
Don't wait until the final hour
It may never arrive
if that's the plan
if that's the plan
Getting all these messages from voices in my head
Warning me how much to do before I wake up dead
Stand for something now
Or fall for anything
the time has come to shout loud
I won't go quietly
Won't be a face in the crowd
I'll stand defiantly
Keep on beating me down
You can't beat me out of me
AHH Come on
I feel its just a show
I know we all fall down
And one day I will return to the ground
I scream at you but I ain't come down
Time is now
You've got to
Stand for something now
Or fall for anything
The time has come to shout loud
I won't go quietly
Won't be a face in the crowd
I'll stand defiantly
Keep on beating me down
You can't beat me out of me
Stand for something now
Can't beat me out of me
(repeats)
And then you passed away
