about

A song about how sometimes the shortness of life can work to your advantage by encouraging you to become the best you can be. Really I wish I lived by this sentiment.

lyrics

I found Myself a watch today
with a ticking heart and a big long chain
It shines of gold in the midday sun
I want to show it to everyone
It makes me better in the rain
Helps me stay lined up and sane
Helps me say I'm gonna be fine
Helps me sing of a better time
And through the things I wanna be
It lines me up and helps me see
Just what's right there in front of me
I won't stop running
I won't stop finding a way
To make that dream come true
And it keeps calling me
It keeps calling my name
And I can say
I did it for you
So try on that watch now, See how it fits
Cuz nothing can get that much better than this
This is the time when I take my life in my own hands
So bring in the orchestra, strike up the band
When you say that it's all wrong
hold on tight and carry on.
And we all have our watch to find
with it's own measure and it's own time
thank god this crazy world only has one sun
all our watches they tick as one
and through the things I cannot change
I just try hard to rearrange
when everything just seems so strange
I won't stop running
I won't stop finding a way
To make that dream come true
And it keeps calling me
It keeps calling my name
And I can say that I did it for you
So try on that watch now, See how it fits
Cuz nothing can get that much better than this
And who are you to say gooodbye?
And who are you to leave it all behind?
So you start with a dream, it takes root in your mind,
Give it some effort now, give it some time
Pull that thing forward now, let it all shine
cuz it only works when your life's on the line
Give it a reason, give it a choice.
Give it to everyone; let them rejoice.
Give it a reason, give it a name,
becaue when you are gone, it is all that remains.
Let's make that dream come true
