[Chorus:]
I've been up three long days and we've covered a million miles.
Or so it seems
My face is cracking from all the fears and miles,
My trials and all my dreams
And I know why I live this way
My energy left me, it's back today
Sacrifice my body and mind
Because this is our time.So many dreams stretched over these endless miles
So many faces and places we left with endless smiles
But buried deep within our souls
The inability to let goSo many dreams stretched over these endless miles
So many faces and places we left behind[Chorus]
I've been up three long days and we've covered a million miles
Or so it seems
My face is cracking from all the fears and smiles,
My trials and all my dreams
And I know why I live this way
My energy left me, it's back today
Sacrifice my body and mind
Because this is our timeSo let's pack it up and gas it up
We'll give this one more try
And answer this burning question that's consumed us all the while
We'll give it everything we've got and if this ends today
We'll know that we gave it our best shotAnd I know how it feels to be battered and frayed
And since we're all still here, I'm glad that I stayedAnd tonight we'll make this oursAnd so I'll pack my things and I'll wipe your crying eyes once again
It hurts to chase this dream but I'll follow this one through to the endAnd I know why I live this way
My energy left me, it's back today
Sacrifice my body and mind
Because this is our time
