Time has come and time is done
Cities burn, we got youth to spend 
And time to waste and life to live again my friend
 
Through the flames and through the fire
Cities burn
We don't give a damn
'Cause we got all our friends right here
We got youth to spend

'Cause time away from me is what I need
To clear my sight and clear my head
I'm coming down over it
Coming down over it
Coming down over, I'll be right there
I'm coming down over it
Coming down over again

And all is said and all is done
Our fathers run and leave all the damage they've done behind
Left us with the blind leading the blind
 
And time has come and time is done
Cities burn
We don't give a damn
'Cause we got all our friends right here
We got youth to spend
 
Time away from me is what I need
To clear my sight and clear my head
I'm coming down over it
Coming down over
Coming down over, I'll be right there
I'm coming down over it
Coming down over again
 
Be right there
I'll be right there
Down I go, I'll scream, I'll go to bed
I feel my blood, I did my time
I'm deep in my bed, I'm deep in my way
I'm keepin' my soul
Then I go
I'll be right there

(Over it, I'm over it, I'm over it, I'm over it)
(Over it, I'm over and over it)
(Going over it, over and over it)
(I'm finally over it, over it, over it)
(Over and over it, over and over it)
(I mean over it, over and over it)
(Over and over it, over and over it)
(Over it, over and over it)
(Over and over it)

(The birds are singing, "It's the end of the world")
(The birds are singing, "It's the end of the world")
(The birds are singing, "It's the end of the world")
(The birds are singing, "It's the end of the world")
(The birds are singing, "It's the end of the world")
(The birds are singing, "It's the end of the world")
(The birds are singing, "It's the end of the world")
(The birds are singing, The birds are singing)
(The birds are singing)
(The birds are singing, "It's the end of the world")
(The birds are singing, "It's the end of the world")
(The birds are singing, The birds are singing)
(The birds are singing, "It's the end of the world")
(The birds are singing)
(The birds are singing, "It's the end of the world, it's the end")

'Cause time away from me is what I need
To clear my sight and clear my head
Clear my head
Clear my head
Clear my head
