[Lyric] Prisoners of Time (Double Take (Folk))

[Verse 1]
Used to play hard rock and roll
Doesn't seem all that long ago
Thought I had every answer
Now I know that time's like a cancer
Lost in time, but it's still unknown
When did it leave and where did it go
Ghosts of the future, time's just borrowed
Here today, then gone tomorrow

[Pre-Chorus]
We're all losing to time, trying to slow down the clock
Prisoners of time waiting for death row's knock
Now's fading soon, it's just moments away
Until it's there with yesterday

[Chorus]
It's a long, hard journey to paradise
But I'll take my chances and roll the dice
It's the start of the end, or maybe the end of the start
Hope and pray that you've done your part
[Verse 2]
Can't stop aging, the years won't obey
Sooner than later, we all have to pay
Body's slower, mind starts to wander
Absence of youth won't make the heart grow stronger
Lot of days older and deeper in debt
Bluffing the years, but loosing the bet
Future's close with the reality of grey
It's time to stop, nothing else to say

[Pre-Chorus]
We're all losing to time, trying to slow down the clock
Prisoners of time waiting for death row's knock
Now's fading soon, it's just moments away
Until it's there with yesterday

[Chorus]
It's a long, hard journey to paradise
But I'll take my chances and roll the dice
It's the start of the end, or maybe the end of the start
Hope and pray that you've done your part
