Sentenced - Brief Is The Light

The bells again...someone has died
The bells of the end toll to remind
that lifeÂ's but a race against time
At your back youÂ'll always hear
The Chariot of Time hurrying near
The faster you run the closer it comes
A pursuer you can not outrun
Hear these words I say:
- Make the most out of your day
For brief is the light on our way
On this momentary trail
Hear these words, awake:
- Make the most out of your day
For brief is the time, so brief is the time
that weÂ're allowed to stay
The bells again...whose turn this time?
To reach the end, yours or mine? Each funeral just makes us realize
that lifeÂ's but a series of goodbyes
Hear these words I say:
- Make the most out of your day
For brief is the light on our way
On this momentary trail
(too late)
Hear these words I say:
- Make the most out of your day
For brief is the light on our way
On this momentary trail
Hear these words, awake:
- Make the most out of your day
For brief is the time, so brief is the time
that weÂ're allowed to stay
Life passes by, melts away like snow in the spring
We all are blind to the running of time
