Take the test and do your best 
Watch you burn you life away 
Buried in the hourglass

Trying to tell you what to do

That you can open up your mind 
You can open up your mind 
And I just can't wait for another day 
And I can't sleep cause 
I'm too afraid 
And I don't know where 
I'm gawn end up next
