Kings & Queens

All my life i've been trying to go nowhere fast. I look outside and watch the world go by. But as I look I wonder 'has all this really passed?' And would I still be here the day I die? Do I really wanna kiss my life goodbye?' It's been the same old pattern. The life of a fool It's not that good but things could be much worse When someone told me lately the one and only rule It's up to me to change my future first Get up and go find out what it's worth The kings and queens look back at me But what I need are aces in between The kings and queens are safe and sound But they won't help me turn my life around Only I can turn my life around Sometimes the old went flying and in came the new I opened many doors to take a chance Cowardly I came to senses and never followed through I always stopped and stayed right where I am But now I know the world is in my hands The kings and queens look back at me But what I need are aces in between The kings and queens are safe and sound But they won't help me turn my life around Only I can turn my life around The place where I feel safe will be always in my mind But to appreciate it all I'll have to leave that place behind I'm gonna open up my soul like I've never done before And even if I'm gonna fail I'll be gaining so much more The kings and queens look back at me But what I need are aces in between The kings and queens are safe and sound But they won't help me turn my life around Only I can turn my life around
