Now Is On

Now Is On

1. Now Is On

Now Is On

(verse 1)

rolling down a steep hill

as if standing still

quickly the world turns

and there’s nowhere to run

 

if we cannot hide

if there’s no free ride

what happens to our souls

as we grow frail and old?

 

going on

from day to everyday

it’s hard to see the change from this up close

now is on

it never goes out of style

and in the season it always makes the most

 

(chorus)

we’ll never be the same

it’s not the rules that change but the game

spring summer fall winter

never be the same

from grandparents to parents

and children to grandkids

(end chorus)

 

(verse 2)

if  held up to the wind

the candle goes out

blown by a force

that perhaps lives in space

 

if we can’t be omniscient

we’re free to question it

it makes me tired

but I get up and go

 

going on

constantly in this environment

what I feel can shape it

changing on

into the endless void

floating like a spinning meteoroid

 

(chorus)

we’ll never be the same

not a trace will remain

but our past feelings leave a stain

never be the same

from generation to generation

take action anew

(end chorus)

 

(bridge)

going on

from day to everyday

it’s hard to see the change from this up close

now is on

it never goes out of style

and in the season it always makes the most

 

(chorus)

we’ll never be the same

it’s not the rules that change but the game

spring summer fall winter

never be the same

from grandparents to parents

and children to grandkids

(end chorus)
