Now don't let 'em tell you
You're branded the way you've been raised
There's always a line you can cross

'Cause you've got a heartprint
A rythm that you've made your own
A message that must not be lost

Now you've been thinking that you're trapped
That your road of life's been mapped
Don't let 'em tell you that you can't, shake off that...

Second hand life, second hand dream
You don't need their second hand schemes
You've got a brand new chance to get this whole thing right
No, you don't need their second hand life

With their expectations
They've all got your life figured out
The way you should walk, talk and feel

But each generation
Is given the right to be wrong
And every mistake makes it real

So shed your past and don't look back
You are the first train on this track
Don't let 'em tell you that you can't, shake off that...

Second hand life, second hand dream
You don't need their second hand schemes
You've got a brand new chance to get this whole thing right
No, you don't need their second hand life

The sins of our fathers, the trials of our brothers
Is nothing that we can't undo
It's time to reject all that guilt and regret
It's not up to me, it comes down to you

So take this heart, take this love
It's up to us to rise above
And build a brand new world above the strife
Oh, we can change this second hand life
This second hand life
Oh, we can change it
Second hand life, second hand life, second hand
Oh, we can change it
Oh, we can change it
Second hand life, second hand life, second hand
Oh, rearrange it
Oh, we can change it
Second hand life, second hand life, second hand
Oh, we can change it
Oh, we can change
Second hand life, second hand life, second hand
Oh, rearrange it
Second hand life, second hand life, second hand
Oh, we can change
Second hand
Second hand life, second hand life, second hand
