Prisoners of Today (demo) Songtext
von Billy Talent

I never bite off more than I can chew but then she came and bit me
I never bite off more than I can chew but then she bit my leg
She said "don′t wanna work I wanna play and live my life like it was Sunday!"
"The only problem is that Sunday only comes now once a week and I'm a freak but..."

We′re breaking up the city,
No time for wasting away
So tell me why should we stay
A prisoner of today?

My body's tired, my soul's excited and I wish that I was gifted,
My body′s tired, my soul′s excited and I wish I had some spunk,
She said "I wanna run, I wanna hide, and leave this place just like it left me"
"The only problem is I need to find the balls to follow through and that's the truth but..."

We′re breaking up the city,
No time for wasting away,
So tell me why should we stay
A prisoner of today?


We're breaking up the city,
No time for wasting away,
So tell me why should I stay
A prisoner of today?

When there′s no time for one another? (We're breaking up the city)
No time for one another (no time for wasting away)
No time for one another (so tell me why should I stay)
No time for one another (a prisoner of today)

′Cause this is our time, this is our time,
This is our time and our space.
History I, history I,
History I can't erase!

'Cause this is our time, this is our time,
This is our time and our space.
History I, history I,
History I can′t erase!

We′re breaking up the city,
No time for wasting away,
So tell me why should we stay
A prisoner of today?


We're breaking up the city,
No time for wasting away,
So tell me why should I stay
A prisoner of today?

We′re breaking up the city,
No time for wasting away,
So tell me why should I stay
A prisoner of today?

When there's no time for one another? (We′re prisoners of today)
No time for one another (We're prisoners of today)
No time for one another (We′re prisoners of today)
No time for one another (We're prisoners of today)

No time for one another (We're prisoners of today)
No time for one another (We′re prisoners of today)
There′s no time for! One another! (We're prisoners of today)
There′s no time for! One another! (We're prisoners of today)
