|
In this life, there are no clean breaks |
|
But starting again is a chance that you can take |
|
I always thought that someday we would overcome the bad luck- |
|
And from the burden, the gift would come |
|
Maybe I shoulda known better |
|
But I know we're coming closer to the end- |
|
Of whatever this has been |
|
When you're 16, you don't know what forever means |
|
When you are 23, you couldn't be more sorry to say |
|
That after all this growing up together all the good has gone away |
|
Sometimes the boys that should be yours best friends become strangers with familiar faces |
|
Don't tell me that it's all too far gone |
|
That they weren't meant to live on |
|
And don't let go! |
|
I just don't want to have to pretend |
|
If we're not in this together |
|
If we're just stuck inside our own heads |
|
And I'm sorry that it took me so long- |
|
To find the words to write the song |
|
That we can all still truly believe in- |
|
But I truly believe that we can still start again |
