SWAN SONG (MOVING ON)
Tonight my fears evade
Fall in a summer haze
Look over my shoulder
Never mind I’ve grown older
And as my addiction fades I’m learning to step away
I’ll seize the day
I’ll seize the day
I’ve spent the better part of this season taking back the last year
I’m hopeless, I’m broken, and I’m bleeding out
But times are different now
I put the hammer to the nail
to memories gone stale
Pack your bags (we’ll leave at quarter past)
Three and we’re never coming back
Leaving this forsaken town at last
Start over (on our new lives)
Leave the rest of it behind
Now’s the time
I’ve spent the better part of this season taking back the last year
I’m hopeless, I’m broken, and I’m bleeding out
But times are different now
I put the hammer to the nail
to memories gone stale
I thought you rescued me
Look what I’ve fallen for
Now that the dust settles
Better now than I was before
I thought you rescued me
Look what I’ve fallen for
Now that the dust settles
Better now than I was before
Call it a swan song
Call it moving on
Here’s a toast to happiness
I’ve spent the better part of this season taking back the last year
I’m hopeless, I’m broken, and I’m bleeding out
But times are different now
I put the hammer to the nail
to memories gone stale
I’ve spent the better part of this season taking back the last year
I’m hopeless, I’m broken, and I’m bleeding out
But times are different now
Sunlight pours through the boarded windows
Light fills the room
