All of your life you've tried to survive You're working so hard to get a real good start You won't be a loser, you will be the first one You can't break free, that's your destiny
[Chorus:] The time has come to say goodbye Your rising sun will fall Grim Reaper comes to speak his words You know that you'll always be: Only a passenger We are only passengers
You win one battle you don't win the war You're standing so tall with your back on the wall The iron wheel breaks you, too tired to defend Are you really a rich man when it comes to the end
[Chorus:] The time has come to say goodbye Your rising sun will fall Grim Reaper comes to speak his words You see that you'll ever be: Only a passenger We are only passengers
And when you are broken the last word is spoken Fire is burned-out, what about your pride Look into the mirror tell me what do you see Here comes your last trip, now you'll be free
[Chorus:] The time has come to say goodbye Your rising sun will fall Grim Reaper comes to speak his words You know that you'll always be Only a passenger, only a passenger
Only a passenger, we are only passengers You are a passenger, we are only passengers And we will break free
