lyrics

I'm looking for a way, I'm counting down the days
I wish I could live a life where I wasn't chasing change
'Cause the life in front of me is all i'm gonna see
I won't live where i'm standing now, cause nostalgia's all I breath
Memories take their toll and the future takes it's hold
Let it go, see it now, not the man that's down the road

I won't give up, won't make the call
It's testing times but I was bound to fall
Get on up, brush it off
Just seize the day and just take it
Never been times where it wasn't rough
I'm doing just fine and I didn't need your love

But it aches inside of me
Thinking about the life I'll have or the man that I have been
Take time with the others, grab a cold beer with your brothers
Lose your fear, clear your mind, just take some time, recover
Nostalgia all around, creeping inside and it's getting loud
Making it's mark, getting real dark, trying to forget that you're living now

I won't give up, won't make the call
It's testing times but I was bound to fall
Get on up, brush it off
Just seize the day and just take it
Never been times where it wasn't rough
I'm doing just fine and I didn't need your love

Watch, oh there he goes
Watch, oh there I goes
Watch, oh there he goes
Watch me leaving

I won't give up, won't make the call
It's testing times but I was bound to fall
Get on up, brush it off
Just seize the day and just take it
Never been times where it wasn't rough
I'm doing just fine and I didn't need your love
