as time goes by i'm aging and changing on the outside but i'm staying the same on the inside i try to find comfort in my mind and don't forget to remember the things you used to do when i'm trying to change the point of view as i grow older i change my point of view there's no escape no path to get away caught and trapped in the own body there's no escape no path to get away caught and trapped in the own body and don't forget to remember the things you used to do when i'm trying to change the point of view as i grow older i change my point of view as time goes by i'm aging and changing on the outside but i'm staying the same on the inside i try to find comfort in my mind and don't forget to remember the things you used to do

So Long 02:41
when you feel like giving up remember why you held on for so long for so long in the first place find what you are really looking for have you ever wondered sometimes people put up walls not to keep others out but to see who cares enough to break them down in times of conformity in times of despair in times of drifting and going nowhere when it comes to drifting all over the place it's about blame shifting strike some different ways when it comes to drifting all over the place it's about blame shifting hike some different ways when you feel like giving up remember why you held on for so long for so long in the first place find what you are really looking for have you ever wondered sometimes people put up walls not to keep others out but to see who cares enough to break them down in times of conformity in times of despair in times of drifting and going nowhere when it comes to drifting all over the place it's about blame shifting strike some different ways

all my dreams fade when i wake up covered up in sheets of sound and here's another try to speak out loud without to suffer from my throat so i recover all my friends have left when i wake up covered up in sheets of smoke and there's another way to get out of where we used to be at each other's throats from where we used to stay from what we once believed recover from what we used to know suffer from what we have been conveyed yesterday i found myself in a place i'd rather be alone from yesterday yesterday when i was found in a place called home i'd rather be alone i'm miles away all my dreams fade when i wake up covered up in sheets of sound and here's another try to speak out loud without to suffer from my throat so i recover recover from we used to stand suffer from the words we once believed in recover from we used to know suffer from what we have been conveyed yesterday i found myself in a place i'd rather be alone flesh, blood and bone i'm miles away from yesterday when i was found in a place called home i'd rather be alone i'm miles away recover from we used to stand suffer from the words we once believed in recover from we used to know suffer from what we have been conveyed so i recover from yesterday so let's take cover and recover from our hearts that are stones in disguise so let's take cover and recover from being at each others throats
