[melancholic male vocals] [Verse] It wasn't what I had in mind I had a pocket full of nickels And the doors were open wide It was a race against the clock A ticking time bomb that was ready to explode Oh-oh-oh [Chorus] So it begins [whispered] Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh So it begins [whispered] Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh [Verse 2] [arpeggiated banjo] [arpeggiated banjo] I can feel the countdown ticking To a better state of mind 'Cause I've been running from the Devil And I'm running out of time [arpeggiated banjo] [arpeggiated banjo] [arpeggiated banjo] [arpeggiated banjo] I had a pocket full of nickels And the doors were open wide [arpeggiated banjo] [arpeggiated banjo] It was a race against the clock A ticking time bomb that was ready to explode [arpeggiated banjo] [arpeggiated banjo] [arpeggiated banjo] [arpeggiated banjo] [Chorus] So it begins [whispered] Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh So it begins [whispered] Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh [Bridge] And when we get to where we're going We will look back on it all And we'll be grateful for the struggles 'cause without them We'd fall So don't regret the things you did Just learn from the mistakes and just remember This is where it all begins
