[Verse 1]

Can someone explain to me why

Everyone's in such a hurry to say goodbye?

A rush into the finish line

With no time to spare

[Chorus]

I'm not a loner I'm a miracle

So go save yourself

I'm not alone because you're never there

But I choose to

I choose to take the stairs

[Verse 2]

We are all nothing but cheap wine

In a rush to become so fine

Ferment, grow old, live fast and die

With not a moment to spare

[Chorus]

I'm not a loner I'm a miracle

So go save yourself

I'm not alone because you're never there

But I choose to

I choose to take the stairs

[Bridge]

Time is of the essence

One step at a time

Don't fall from the ledge my friend

Following the blind

Time is an illusion

Fifth dimension's glare

Nothing in this life is free

But the complimentary stares

[Breakdown]

I'll accompany my own way, for me

Not you, not we, judge me now jury

I just can't fake anymore

I got no time to shout

Feels like I lose the control

That's why I'll just take the stairs

[Outro]

Time is of the essence

Time is of the essence

Time is of the essence

Time is of the essence

Time is of the essence
