Cast your worries to the seas,       You can do just what you please,       Don't you know that happiness is free,       Disguised to hide the reasons,       We believe just what we see.             It's time to look beyond the real,       While you create the life you feel,       Everybody needs their time,       Scaling mountains they can't climb,       Falling down to their knees.             Chorus:       It's a sign of the times       Do you want to be       Just a sign of the times       It's the end of the line       Such a tragedy       It's a sign of the times             Shooting stars light up the sky       We march on prepared to die       I won't let them take my sense of pride, no,       Safe beneath the shelter,       But your face you cannot hide             It's time that people realize       What stares them right between their eyes       Everybody's wasting time       Trying to make the words all rhyme,       It's so easy to see             Chorus:       It's a sign of the times       Do you want to be       Just a sign of the times       It's the end of the line       Your animosity       It's a sign of the times       Don't you feel it?       It's a sign of the times       Do you want to be just a sign of the times             Chorus
