I’ve stared into these pictures Memories I cannot re-enact I can’t believe we grew up so damn fast (We grew up so damn fast) Where did the time go? I couldn’t tell you where I’ve been I've seen enough to know where I've been Seven years I slept with one eye open Is it bad luck to stare at the clock? Time is ticking and no one’s listening On this phone, I’m on my own On my own… Tonight has defeated me My past creeps up (to what I see) To see what I see I’ve been dreaming just to dream I’ve been dreaming just to dream... Where did the time go? (Why didn’t it go so slow?) Where did the time go? (I don’t know, I don’t know) At this point, I’m just trying to shut my eyes Sometime before I see the sunrise These memories will remind me I lived my life When we were young and reckless Now I’m just restless…

What do I do? With no god damn clue I’m just sitting here And this can only sound so sincere Before life passes me by I will give this one last try There’s something that gives me these heart beats I will not wither into the dirty streets Life’s too short to be bitter Now I’ve never felt so sure We’re living in a growing wasteland I hold the world with a grain of sand I’m pulling out the stops Pushing hard until my body drops This one’s for myself and no one else Before life passes me by I will give this one last try There’s something that gives me these heart beats I will not wither into the dirty streets Of what I lived through before When I didn’t know myself anymore (Anymore, anymore) Sit back and hold on tight Just put up one hell of a fight There’s nothing else left to fear It’s only going up from here Before life passes me by I will give this one last try There’s something that gives me these heart beats No, I will not wither into the dirty streets

I smiled alone for the first time in years Seems like it was so long ago The feeling is so aged and refined I cannot believe that this was so hard to find Alone and desperate I was so lost (so lost) What was I doing relying on lust? What was I thinking to be that way? (that way) This is such a joke, I'm gonna be okay I am so, so ashamed Hiding myself from this pain I can't live like this anymore There's gotta be a stop to this I need to pick myself up From the floor Alone and desperate I was so lost (so lost) What was I doing relying on lust? What was I thinking to be that way? (that way) This is such a joke, I'm gonna be okay (okay, okay) Such a fucking ghost to myself This is the first time I felt... This is the first time I felt (okay with myself) This is the first time I felt (in so long, so long) This is the first time, this is the first (ooh, ooh) This is the first time I felt (in so long, so damn long) What was I doing I'm gonna be okay What was I thinking? (this is the first time I felt) I'm gonna be okay What was I doing? I'm gonna be okay What was I thinking? What was I doing? What was I thinking? I'm gonna be okay

Knocked out, punched out My teeth are on the floor Bloodied and bruised, I've got nothing to lose Picking myself back up has been the hardest thing to do (The hardest thing to do) We've got a long time to go before we are where we need to be We wont stop, we're not gonna quit We're too far along for all that shit (whoa) We're gonna keep moving on and on and on and on Things can't always stay the same They gotta change, you've gotta change Nothing can last forever You oughta spend some time, thinkin' about yourself That's all we can do Hold strong, when everything is gone I've lost it all, we've lost it all Its not the first time (woah, woah, woah, woah) Things can't always stay the same They gotta change, you've gotta change Nothing can last forever You oughta' spend some time, thinkin' about yourself Because you're always thinkin' of someone else (You've got to do what's best for you) Why should I try? You give me nothing and I get less back You give me nothing and I cant push back Why should I try? (should I try?) You give me nothing and I get less back You give me nothing and I get held back So why should we even try? I give you nothing and you don't push back So why do you even try? I give you small things but you get held back Why should we even try? You give me nothing and I get less back You give me nothing and I get held back And when I'm gone, You'll forget everything about me So fucking fickle...
