lyrics

For the sake of simplicity, I'll try to keep this short;
If we're gonna follow this road then we have a lot of work to put in.
Ain't that the thing?
And we'll clear up the rubble, but we wont hide the scars.
I hate to break it to you but they're part of who we are gonna be
From now on
And I know that we're both haunted by the thought that we'll regress,
But the foundation that we made is the thing that we built best.
It consists of brick made of clay we found under the sand
In the playgrounds where we spent our youth and now I understand that

Starting over doesn't mean that you haven't learned a thing
Having closure leaves you with nothing left to cling to

And no, I wont wait for you to begin my life. That's for me to decide
And when I said "I still wish you the best," I didn't lie
And I know I've made some enemies for meaning what I've said,
But it's better to be alive and hated and adored and dead
And now it's time to clear the air, It's time to clean the slate
And if you say I'm down and out then I'm the man you underestimate

Because

Starting over doesn't mean that I haven't learned a thing
And having closure leaves me with nothing left to cling to.

Some people are so Goddamn sure
That we ain't gonna make it, let alone get off the ground
And I could fucking care less.
The foundation's set and
The time is now.
