[Verse 1:]
|
I remember like yesterday
|
You had a dream in your eyes and a smile on your face
|
And I'm missing those days again, yeah I'm missing those days again
|
And I forgot what really got in the way
|
Maybe the sun that wouldn't shine should be taking the blame
|
Cause its raining on me again, yeah its raining on me again
|
|
[Bridge:]
|
A paradox
|
The key you dropped
|
A manifest
|
For what you lost, was me
|
For my sake please...
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Stop slowing me down, stop holding me up
|
Quit making a scene, enough's enough.
|
Let's be honest, your promise, was never meant to last
|
So I'm taking you on, I'm calling you out.
|
There's nothing left for us here now.
|
Let's be honest, I promise, I'm never lookin' back for my sake.
|
For my sake.
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
Tell me something that's poetic at best
|
Make me believe there was a time that you weren't like the rest
|
And I'll never ask you again, and I'll never ask you again
|
For all the moments and the memories
|
No one could ever say we never had a history
|
But I'm leaving that all behind
|
And there is nothing gonna change my mind
|
|
