Looking back at the beginning of this And how life was Just you and me and love and all of our friends Living life like an ocean But now the currents slowly pulling me down It's getting harder to breath It won't be too long and I'll be going under Can you save me from this 'Cause it's not my time, I'm not going There's a fear in me It's not showing This could be the end of me And everything I know Oh, I won't go I look ahead to all the plans that we made And the dreams that we had I'm in a world that tries to take 'em away Oh, but I'm taking 'em back All this time I've just been to blind to understand What should matter to me My friend, this life we live Is not what we have, it's what we believe It's not my time I'm not going There's a fear in me It's not showing This could be the end of me And everything I know But, it's not my time I'm not going There's a wield in me Now I know that This could be the end of me And everything I know Oh, but I won't go I won't go There might be more than you believe (There might be more than you believe) There might be something you can see It's not my time I'm not going There's a fear in me It's not showing This could be the end of me And everything I know But, it's not my time I'm not going There's a wield in me Now I know that This could be the end of me And everything I know Oh, but I won't go There might be more than you believe (There might be more than you believe) There might be more than you can see I won't go! No I won't go down! Yeah
