A great expanse where a way of life is lost

Spare no expense, tear down the wall at all cost

Learn from and embrace the past

There's a struggle that's eternal generation gap

Try, because we will set the beat

Made strong by our models slow defeat

Disappointment is a way of life

Because our way of life is just not out there

We'll take our time and we'll always try

Our future we can't see

So unsure but it's up to you and me

We've got our chance to lead

But a struggle from within may soon be our defeat

Eyes that only see skin deep

Won't see us through to victory

Problems are multiplying

Are you looking for solutions or pointing your finger?

We'll take our time and we'll always try

To make the best of what we're given

[Chorus]

We do it harder

We do it faster

We take a chance

We have no fear

Make no mistake

We are and have been

Making the rules and crossing the line

You've got your systems

You've got your regrets

I make no excuse for mine

Don't try and tell me I've got no right

Or reason to take a chance

I've got what I need and I'll make it last

We've got plenty of reserves

We love to use them

Face every day with brand new eyes

Step back and watch the standard rise

Renewed and always redefined

I always had a reason

But you've become my reason now

I still walk alone

I see my way I've got to keep going

Make my presence known

As I journey through a world that is built to tear down our kind

After they find out why it is we're here

They'll need to understand

Give up, give in, get out, or face their ultimate fear

[Chorus]x2

(Making the rules)

(Now is our time)

I always had a reason

(Making the rules)

(Now is our time)

But you've become my reason

(Making the rules)

(Now is our time)

I always had a reason
