Back for the Last Time

(Verse 1)
I was runnin’ on empty, chasin’ every bad sign,
Living nights like a stranger, walkin’ over my own lines.
All those hazy promises, they never set me free,
Just a fast car to nowhere, and it almost buried me.

(Pre-Chorus)
But I heard a voice inside say,
“Son, you ain’t built to fade away…”

(Chorus)
’Cause I’m back—
Back for the last time,
Took the long road down, but I’m takin’ back my life tonight.
Yeah I’m back—
Stronger than the hard times,
Got a new heartbeat and a fire in my eyes.
I’m done with the fallin’, no more borderline.
I’m back, back for the last time.

(Verse 2)
Oh I remember the mornings where the sun felt like a lie,
Yeah Lyin’ to myself, sayin’ “one more” just to get by.
But the truth kept callin’ me, louder than the hurt,
And I finally learned the lesson of what I’m really worth.

(Pre-Chorus)
And now I’m standin’ on my own feet,
Ain’t lettin’ that old ghost follow me…

(Chorus)
Oh yeah ‘Cause I’m back—
Back for the last time,
Took the long road down, but I’m takin’ back my life tonight.
Yeah I’m back—
Stronger than the hard times,
Got a new heartbeat and a fire in my eyes.
I’m done with the fallin’, no more borderline.
I’m back, back for the last time.

(Bridge)
No lookin’ over my shoulder,
No more chains to hold me down.
I’m walkin’ into tomorrow,
Hear that freedom in the sound.

(Final Chorus)
Yeah I’m back—
Back for the last time,
With a second chance that feels like the best ride of my life.
I’m back—
Watch the old days flatline,
Got a wide-open highway and a brand-new sunrise.
I’m done with the fallin’, leavin’ wreckage behind—
I’m back, back for the last time. Oh yeah, yesh, yeah, yeah— ohhh
