Anticipation

Time running, sprinting closer
The time rushes closer
Faster, faster, faster
No more time to hide behind
Closer, closer you're almost there
No time for thinking

Go, go, go
Times almost up
Hurry, you don't want to be late
Quickly now, we haven't much time
No looking back now
You're too far in

Keep going, keep running
There'll be no time for second thoughts 
Faster, faster youll soon be there
No time for doubts or unfaught wars
Get ready, prepare
Don't back out now

Run, run, run
Time is running faster now
Sweeping me away
Away into my future
