These few years have gone so fast, I just can’t believe it how things do change but they re-arrange, as we get older we all look the same. It’s not just fun we all have our doubts; paying bills, collecting debts. So we’ll make a toast to the times we had and forget it all for one night. We’ll talk about growing up; we’ll talk about giving up. We’ll think of all the things we wish we did, but just never did. If this is life, then I’d rather try to smile and make one of my own. I’d rather risk and lose it all than to feel nothing at all. I’m not saying I’ll never settle down, but once I do I’ll make it worth the while so we won’t spend another night where we’ll talk about growing up; we’ll talk about giving up. We’ll think of all the things we wish we did, but just never did.

It seems she’s been gone for a while now, and I just can’t let it go. It seems she’s always on the run now, and I’m afraid to let her know. It’s like her demons, they follow me around and there’s nothing I can change about the way she’s living things. Just hold on, hold on; and be who you wanna be. Just hold on, hold on; there’s a lot more left to see. I know you know, yeah we both know that it’s worth it in the end. So if you stay just another night, I swear we’ll make it through. Don’t cover me I’m who I am for now, and I’m just trying to be the best I can and have it reflect on what’s surrounding me. It’s true, I know I have a few habits I can’t kick but I still mean it when I say I think it’s not too late, it’s never too late.

When I get back home, back from where I thought I was so strong, it’s like the night comes and they’re haunting me. I try to hide this feeling, but it’s always there. It’s always there and probably goes to show what I’m thinking, I’m ashamed that this is part of me. This tragedy keeps building up and we just keep on giving up. I know it’s easier to go on, forget it. You’re giving up, we’re giving up, can’t you see? You’re giving up on me. And the late night drives back to where, back to when I thought there was nothing wrong. It’s like they’re longer if you stay and it’s killing me. So consider it done before it’s too late. Consider it done before you know that it’s all fake. What I’m thinking, I’m ashamed that this is part of me. This tragedy keeps building up and we just keep on giving up. I know it’s easier to go on, forget it. But now it’s breaking and we’re both losing. This tragedy keeps building up and we just keep on giving up. I know it’s easier to go on, forget it. But now it’s breaking, it’s breaking, it’s breaking, right now. You’re giving up on me.

You walk in the room with your hair pulled back. You got the attention just like you wanted, they turned their heads did you feel it? You look so pretty, yeah you look so happy. How in the hell could you not like glory? Them boys are waiting in line. Yeah, they’re wishing to see but not wishing to be who you really are. Goodbye, this time it is for real. Let down and broken, now you feel messed up cause you know by now it’s over. You know by now it’s over. You’re not even half of what I expected you’d be. You’re weak when the night comes, and there’s no place you can hide. No, there’s no place you can hide. And I thought for long, it’d be worth it in the end. But I guess I was wrong, I never felt so alone. So maybe someday if I see you around, you’ll bite your tongue and be loss for words. ‘Cause baby, that’s a secret I can’t keep.

Sometimes I start to think of life, and all the answers I’ll never have to the questions we’re always thinking, we’re always asking. But for now I’ll stop to think, ‘cause tonight I’m living the dream. Yeah for now I’ll stop to think, cause for now. We’ll run away, and we won’t be coming back. We’ll run away, no we’re never coming back. And if it all comes down to this, no we won’t be coming back. And if it all comes down to this, no we’re never coming back. Watch the world we’re getting old, let’s make sure we don’t grow so cold. ‘Cause if it all came to an end, I’d cross my heart and hope to die. But for now I’ll stop to think, ‘cause tonight I’m living the dream. Yeah for now I’ll stop to think, cause for now, yeah for now. So count me in when it’s safe to say we’re not the ones to blame. ‘Cause we’ll never grow, we’ll never grow so cold.

It’s for the summer nights when we use to sit and talk all night, all night about the stupidest of things. We didn’t have a lot back then; a cheap guitar, stolen beer but that was all. Yeah, that was all we ever needed. Oh yeah, oh yeah; they said make it happen, make us proud. Whenever we were in vain, they were never so far away. Oh yeah, oh yeah; I swear whatever happens I’ll let you know. And you can count on me if you need me around, I’ll be a quick phone call, just a quick phone call away. It’s for the best of friends. For all those careless times we drank all night. All night, and tried our best to not get caught. We thought we’d found the perfect love. Making out, acting cool, tonight we make our rules. It’s past to me, still memory. They said make it happen, make us proud.
