My father told me once
"Son, don't get stuck working a place you hate"
When I was eighteen and the world was at our feet
But if time would ever give me a break
And if life would ever cut you some slack
Maybe then we'd stop looking back and wishing
things would've turned out differently
And it seems like the seasons changed
without passing in front of me
Said "Where'd the summers go
When we could live and grow
I miss not feeling like a shadow"
That's how you always think
Why can't this just be easy
I'm still lost, help me before I sink
It's never too late
For me to retrace
And you to replay
And then we start again on a different day
It's how I'm afraid of what I can't change
And yet I hold my breath and expect things to stay the same
As when we were younger
The cloud of gloom you hold above me
Won't block the sun out that easy
I just want to make you all aware
There's no future, there's no comfort there
A hopeless seat, that's where we'll meet
I hope from time to time that you think of me
And that you smile
Struggle to stop from holding a stare
I see you in clothes that you never wear
I'm trying to stay in this moment
Try to forgive all the years that were stolen
But I close my eyes, I can see you there
I hold a gruge like I breathe in air
And that's all that I've known for a while now
