i'm not finished yet
'cause i still feel the same
/
i'm starting to hate everything i hear
second-guessing every word i sing
i'm turning into someone i don't wanna be
but i've always been the type to reminisce
'cause i always knew it would end like this
it's all just a matter of time
just like we used to
it's how we get through
how 'bout those years between
take a good look
so far away from the start
and still they couldn't tear us apart
i can feel the world pushing me back
and it takes everything that i've got left
not to fall into the cracks
so is this the last time
before we're left behind
all the more reason to try
i said never again
but then i caved in
it's something that just won't be denied
stuck in the past
no i don't buy that
we're just the last ones to die

so what's left
after everything we said
i can't remember
'cause it's been forever
since i raised my fist
this oath that i pledged
i can't keep my promise
the kids are all dead
youth gone expired
those heroes we had
and no longer admire
they're gone away
things don't sound the same
it's got nothing to do with my age
it must be you
'cause it can't be me
young 'til i die
and i'll never change
not like everyone else
there's just no way
so full of shit
but we were kids
i'm not ashamed of it
we fought the odds
we made it count
no matter what we did
we lived our lives
unlike the one
you said we had to live
i wouldn't trade away
a single day
for anything

when you see everything the way you want
that makes it tough to give a fuck
about all the shit you stand to miss
if there's one thing that i know
it's this
i see through you
all of us do
yeah we see through you
no more bullshit explanations
heard every single justification
but you're the problem
and i think it's time we solved it
i just wanna know how it feels
when everything you love
falls down around your ears
for far too long
we've been living this way
so now we're pushing your agenda
back into your fucking face

one more time
let's dust this off and we'll see
what we find
beneath the years we spent getting
left behind
the faces aren't the same and
neither's mine
so take me back or leave me be
'cause i can't rearrange these memories
still we fucked up 'cause it was never enough
well it made sense to us back when
we used to stick to what we said
the torch we never passed
it burned us to the ground
and there's no going back now
we did our best but we got careless
who says it's dead i don't believe it
we did our best
whoever's next you take your best shot at this mess

how did it feel to let us down
did it even cross your mind
when you just
struck a match to everything we built
well my patience is in
limited supply
and i can't watch you tear yourself apart
i won't stand by for your demise
it was hard to watch you fall
when you stood so tall
so far above
everyone
but now when you look down
who's looking back
no one at all

it's been a long time
since we had a night like this
and it takes me back
to a time i miss
but all these faces look different
and i'm losing track
what was it that convinced us
we should come back
we used to have a purpose
and a space to fill
but what if there's no more room
what do we do
we acted like
it was never gonna happen to us
so we gave in and grew up
just like everyone else
now you can try your best
to convince yourself
you still belong in this place
when you know you don't
you can feel it in the air
now it's time to leave
so don't make it any harder
than it has to be

we used to spend our nights
under parking lot lights
just some kids with a grudge
against toeing the line
when all we ever needed
was a little more time
and only shows down
unknown roads would suffice
well there's gotta be
something in between
where we've gone and where we're
gonna be
i wanted more out of this 'cause
there's so many things that i
shouldn't have missed
but i did
i tried it your way
and then i tried it mine
and this feeling
it's still eating me up inside
so you go your way
and i guess i'll go mine
if i'm falling apart
i'm doing it on my own time
so here's one more song
to throw on the pile
we've been dealing with our problems
like this for a while
and i don't know when
we'll ever make our dent
i had a belly full of fire
now there's no spark left
