| I’m looking back to the start of how it all became so damn unkind
|
| To take another line out of another story with intent to call it mine
|
| It seems these days are getting longer without you by my side
|
| And yet it hurts so badly when I have to tell you that I feel much more alive
|
| Take another example from an understanding that you’ll find
|
| By giving up on someone and the loss of value just to help you pass the time
|
| I can’t imagine the thought of hanging on
|
| Tell me something so I can make it wrong
|
| Heaven help me, I’m starting to prolong, even in this song
|
| I miss my friends, and though this anger never ends
|
| I’ll drink it up once more to what has been
|
| Another day left wondering
|
| Is this how it is and will it ever change?
|
| I’m sick of getting old, it’s time to up and go
|
| This time I’ll get it right and stick to what I know
|
| I’ve taken everything in spite of what I need
|
| It’s like I’m living in West Side Story
|
| And everything else inside keeps turning on what seems right
|
| Enough to realize again, this is just a fight that’s never gonna end
|
| This isn’t a line, or tale, or understatement of the year
|
| It’s just a memory of the forgotten times that helps me make my story clear
|
| I can’t imagine the thought of hanging on
|
| Tell me something so I can make it wrong
|
| Heaven help me I’m starting to prolong, even in this song
|
| I miss my friends, and though this anger never ends
|
| I’ll drink it up once more to what has been
|
| Another day left wondering
|
| Is this how it is and will it ever change?
|
| I’m sick of getting old, it’s time to up and go
|
| This time I’ll get it right and stick to what I know
|
| I’ve taken everything in spite of what I need
|
| It’s like I’m living in West Side Story
|
| And everything else inside keeps turning on what seems right
|
| Enough to realize again, this is just a fight that’s never gonna end
|
| I’m taking the long walk home this one last time
|
| And thinking of better days that leave me blind
|
| I’ve taken a turn on life that’s still not within my reach
|
| Enough to realize this sure makes sense to me
|
| I’m sick of getting old, it’s time to up and go
|
| This time I’ll get it right and stick to what I know
|
| I’ve taken everything in spite of what I need
|
| It’s like I’m living in West Side Story
|
| I’m sick of getting old, it’s time to up and go
|
| This time I’ll get it right and stick to what I know
|
| I’ve taken everything in spite of what I need
|
| This sure makes sense
|
| This sure makes sense to me |
