Right Now

The sky has darkened, earth turned to hell
 Some said a light got shined where darkness dwelt
 So I won't cry or collapse, overwhelmed
 Time like a song just might rhyme with itself
 I don't know how I'm going to be a better man
 I don't know how I'm going to reach the Promised Land
 I don't know how I'm going to get you to take my hand
 But I'm going to try and I know when
 Now (now)
 Right now (now)
 Right now (now)
 Right now (now)
 Right now, now (now)
 Right now, now (now)
 Right now, now (now)
 Right now
 Soon the earth may dissolve like snow
 We'll meet again in the air all bound to glow
 And I am glad that I got to know
 I might sing the melody
 But I don't set the tempo
 Who draws the true straw from the fist that's clasped?
 Who pulls the new rope through the loopholes of the past?
 Better hurry up for the first shall be the last
 Better sound the trumpet before the blast
 Now (now)
 Right (now)
 Now, right (now)
 Now, right now (now)
 Right now (now)
 Now, right now (now)
 Now, right now (now)
 Now, right now
 You pulled me up when you took my hand
 There was silence in my heart
 And now I'm striking up the band
 They lit the bonfire but now we can light the lamp
 Now (now)
 Right now (now)
 Right now (now)
 Right now (now)
 Right now, now (now)
 Right now (now, now)
 Right now (now, now)
 Right now (now, now)
 Right now (now, now)
 Right now (now, now)
 Right now (now)
 Now, right now, now, now, now, now
