Arrow of Time Lyrics by Queensrÿche

Condition Hüman

2015

[Verse 1]
What will you do when it's right up on you
Like a ring of fire?
Why ask why? Don't need to justify
Who really cares anyway?
Ethical tragedy, rabid humanity
Learn from the past, so they say-ay-ay
[Chorus]
Now is the time
To make up your mind and find out what is real
Fight or flight
You can't run
You can't run from yourself
[Guitar Solo – Michael Wilton]
[Verse 2]
One reason to survive with a thousand ways to die
When you're living on the wire
Reaching the threshold, near system overload
Caught on the red-eye again
[Chorus]
Now is the time
To make up your mind and find out what is real
Fight or flight
You can't run
You can't run from yourself
[Bridge]
Close your eyes
And hear the voices in your head
Grand disguise
This mass confusion, revered Illusion
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Some grip the mast on their final descent
Into the darkness below
Others will fight, kick and crawl their way out
There is no Heaven below
[Chorus]
Now is the time
To make up your mind and find out what is real
Fight or flight
You can't run
You can't run from yourself
[Outro]
(Fight!)
You can't run
(Fight!)
From the arrow of time
