I picture life as a single pulse
That beats for me and time itself
And realise all I do
Touches me and affects you
Is now affecting you...
Listen to me speak
The things I don't say are the words to keep
A mantra to repeat
And break out from these primal places...
You've got to get what you want
And take what you ask for
You've got to get what you want
And take what you need
You've got to get what you want
And know what your life's for
You've got to get what you want
And let yourself leave...
You walk alone on a tightrope here
But every childhood ends in fear...
And deep inside the thought remains
Maybe all things stay the same
They always stay the same...
There's no compromise
No one else can recreate your life
Leave the old behind
And walk into your new invention...
You've got to get what you want
And take what you ask for
You've got to get what you want
And take what you need
You've got to get what you want
And know what your life's for
You've got to get what you want
And let yourself leave...
Every child has got to break the chain
Stand your ground
But let the bond remain
Take the good and leave the pain
And let the bond remain...
There's no great escape
Revolution comes
Before you change direction...
You've got to get what you want
And take what you ask for
You've got to get what you want
And take what you need
You've got to get what you want
And know what your life's for
You've got to get what you want
And let yourself leave
