Life In Overdrive

▶ Play this song to follow along.

[Intro]

(ooh...)

Born in a room with a clock on the wall

Small hands reaching, learning to crawl

Time starts running before we can talk

Life is a race and we never quite stop

[Verse]

First breath, first cry, first light, first day

Milk teeth, scraped knees, dreams on the way

School bells, bus rides, names in a book

Fast lane living with a wide-eyed look

Young heart pumping with a head full of sound

Feet hit the earth and we run this town

[Chorus]

We Live Too Fast Then We Fade Too Soon

Running from dawn to the edge of the moon

(Hey, hey, keep on running)

Human Life Burns Like A Flash In June

We rise, we fall, but we sing our tune

[Verse]

Teen nights, street lights, love like a spark

Big plans, cheap drinks, fear of the dark

Jobs, bills, deadlines, rent coming due

Smiles for the world while the cracks break through

Hands on the wheel and the years speed by

Blink once, look up, and the kids ask why

[Chorus]

We Live Too Fast Then We Fade Too Soon

Running from dawn to the edge of the moon

(Too fast, too soon)

Human Life Burns Like A Flash In June

We rise, we fall, but we sing our tune

[Bridge]

One life, one shot, no pause, no rewind

You chase the gold, then you lose the time

Hold who you love before they slip your mind

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

We Live Too Fast Then We Fade Too Soon

Running from dawn to the edge of the moon

(Hey, hey, keep on running)

Human Life Burns Like A Flash In June

We rise, we fall, but we sing our tune

[Outro]

The clock keeps turning after we're gone

(Keep on running)

So love right now before the light moves on
