| I take, I take what I’ve been given and I paint it gold |
| I give what I can’t hold |
| The kids |
| They take what they’ve been given far as they have know |
| They change all the rules their sold |
| And as the time goes by |
| We’ll consolidate those old lies |
| Time will always be on our side |
| Even when the last laugh dies |
| So rage |
| Against the day |
| You know there is no wasted time |
| I know I’m not wasting mine |
| So rage |
| Against the day |
| You know there is no wasted time |
| I know I’m not wasting mine |
| Back and forth and back again we |
| Learn to write the right side of history |
| Loosen up the noose they give me |
| Fuck the fame based on some pretence |
| We just want some heat and substance |
| Fuck off games that narrow your lane |
| And as the time goes by |
| We consolidate those old lies |
| Time will always be on our side |
| Even when the last laugh dies |
| So rage |
| Against the day |
| You know there is no wasted time |
| I know I’m not wasting mine |
| So rage |
| Against the day |
| You know there is no wasted time |
| I know I’m not wasting mine |
| Learn to run, don’t crawl |
| Each stone will roll |
| All direction home |
| Dancing round that poll |
| Waging war |
| The rains will fall |
| So rage |
| Against the day |
| You know there is no wasted time |
| I know I’m not wasting mine |
| So rage |
| Against the day |
| You know there is no wasted time |
| I know I’m not wasting mine |
