Let's all think back on what brought us here   This is my grasp on what is real   don't tell me how I feel   With all that's passed I can't relate with myself from day to day   Why does everything seem so far away to me?   There's no turning back from here   I've got to get away from everyone who's left      I'll tell the saddest story of how we made it through this last year   They said we'd walk away   you'll never make it if you can't speak for yourself   They said we'd fade away      We've all been down this path before   You're trapped in this town   and it wears you down   When we leave today then maybe you'll understand this constant struggle isn't always in the palm of my hand      I'll tell the saddest story of how we made it through this last year   They said we'd walk away   you'll never make it if you can't speak for yourself   They said we'd fade away      This man will stand the test of time
