Six billion backs against the wall,
Now do we walk or run?
This puzzle's falling into place,
Once more around the sun.
Remember when you were a kid,
Those days were all so long.
But if we don't do this,
Somebody else will.
Three billion backs against the wall,
A prayer for everyone.
We saw the changing of the sea,
But not a thing was done.
Remember when you could rely,
Those days are all but gone.
And if we don't do this,
Somebody else will.
If we don't do this,
Somebody else will.
Somebody else will.
One billion backs against the wall,
At least our feet were dry.
I was an island to myself,
This storm would pass me by.
Remember any things I did,
I knew I would survive.
But if we don't do this,
Somebody else will.
If we don't do this,
Somebody else will.
Somebody else will.
One million backs against the wall,
Now do we walk or run?
One thousand backs against the wall,
Now do we walk or run?
One hundred backs against the wall,
Now do we walk or run?
It's just your back against the wall,
Now do you walk or run?
Remember when you were a kid,
Those days are all but gone.
If we don't do this,
Nobody else will.
If we don't do this,
Nobody else will.
Nobody else will.
