Don't step the days of your life on a treadmill
Walk each day but cover no new ground
There's something more ahead
Exercise the freedom to explore just who you are
But don't abuse that right
It'll drain you of your life
From ahead look behind
In the nick of time
You can mediate demise
In the nick of time
Remembering your friends who once occupied your time
The simpler things in life

Isn't it a shame that you've lost just what you had
No regrets but lessons that live on inside your mind
From ahead look behind
In the nick of time
You can mediate demise
In the nick of time
Turn to yourself
In the nick of time
You can rely on no one else
In the nick of time
