Cradle to the Grave Lyrics

They say time is of the essence
They say time will always tell
I've wasted time in constant panic
As the the Rome around me fell
And each moment that is stolen
Is another time to breathe
In a life of turning pages
With the bit between my teeth
From the cradle to the grave (From the cradle to the grave)
I know I won't be a slave (I know I wont be a slave)
To the mistakes that I've made (From the cradle to the grave)
With the passion and the pace (I know I wo-nt)
And I wont go till I'm ready
From the cradle to the grave
They say time is a great healer
They say time will not stand still
When I look outside the window
I see a sky stuck to a hill
And the moon looks down behind me
Like it's seen it all before
For a thousand generations
Who don't live here anymore
From the cradle to the grave (From the cradle to the grave)
I know I won't be a slave (I know I wont be a slave)
To the mistakes that I've made (From the cradle to the grave)
With the passion and the pace (I know I wo-nt)
And I wont go till I'm ready
From the cradle to the grave
They say time will wait for no man
They say time is on my side
I can never make my mind up
As it all goes whizzing by
From the cradle to the grave (From the cradle to the grave)
I know I wont be a slave (I know I wont be a slave)
To the mistakes that I've made (From the cradle to the grave)
With the passion and the pace (I know I wo-nt)
And I wont go till I'm ready
No I wont go (from the cradle to the grave)
till I'm ready
No I wont go (from the cradle to the grave)
till I'm ready
From the cradle to the grave (From the cradle to the grave)
I know I wont be a slave (I know I wont be a slave)
To the mistakes that I've made (From the crad-le)
And I wont go till I'm ready
From the cradle to the grave
