At this point, the movie is over
People are leaving their seats
Concessions are closed, and the credits are rolling
Your friends are filling the streets

Your highway was bound for glory
But glory is just on the stage
The glory, a Hollywood story
And time is turning the page

Save yourself
Whispered Marley
While you still have the time
Save yourself, save yourself
Whispered Marley
Your chains are much longer than mine
Your chains are much longer than mine

The people you always had lived for
Began disappearing at night
With each new day, there was one gone away
Now reality doesn't seem right
There's no going home, said the poets
No going back, said the clown
Shake your chains if you want to
But the iron will still weigh you down

Save yourself
Whispered Marley
While you still have the time
Save yourself, save yourself
Whispered Marley
Your chains are much longer than mine
Your chains are much longer than mine

Go back through your life, for an hour
Convict yourself of your crimes
Excuses are futile, evasions transparent
Face up to the truth, while there's time

You turned your back on your loved ones
All for money and arts
You turned your back on your family
Now look how it's torn them apart

Save yourself
Whispered Marley
While you still have the time
Save yourself, save yourself
Whispered Marley
Your chains are much longer than mine
Your chains are much longer than mine

When the movie is finally over
The white light is still on the screen
You will return to eternity's mysteries
No more in this life to be seen
Don't miss the chance to ease suffering
Don't miss the chance to forgive
Don't miss, the chance to be loving
You have this chance while you live

Save yourself
Whispered Marley
While you still have the time
Save yourself, save yourself
Whispered Marley
Your chains are much longer than mine
Your chains are much longer than mine
Your chains are much longer than mine
Your chains are much longer than mine
