[(Verse 1)]
I drive and I get flashbacks,
Days I wish I could have back.
Days when I was younger,
Time going too fast.
Wish the feeling would always last,
Working hard, ’bout to crash,
Out, in this house.
Feels like I just got the key to the door,
Now I’m packing it up for something more.
Back when I was a stupid kid,
No experience, on his own for the first time.
I just wanna hit rewind.
Mistakes I’ve made,
Decisions gone bad.
Back when happiness was always had.
I get like this these days,
Making me feel like I should run away.
Should I stay?
[(Chorus)]
I drive and watch the streetlights fade,
Trying to find who I was yesterday.
Everyone said that time would fly,
No one told me we’d have to say goodbye.
So if these walls could speak my name,
Would they tell me that I’ve changed?
I’m scared to move, but scared to stay,
Just trying to find my way.
[(Verse 2)]
What is it today? What is it today?
Grandma weighing on your head again?
Feel like a failure of a boyfriend?
Feel like you can’t do nothing right?
Feel like you are always wrong?
Why your eyes welling up?
This isn’t even a good song.
You feel the emotions?
You feel this for once?
You felt like this last year,
And were at your worst mentally, trust.
Nobody cares, nobody cries,
A voice inside me tells me lies.
“Go ahead, go on and die.”
Then laughs and watches time go by.
Shut up before I scream,
I’m in charge, you see?
I run the show, I run the shift.
I knocked you out and made you tap.
Do I have to do it again?
You don’t understand,
I’m here to stay.
You’re too kind to me,
I wouldn’t have it any other way.
[(Bridge)]
Get the gloves, get the mat,
You wanna fight me? Let’s do it then.
In the ring, beneath the lights,
Get out of my sight.
You suck, I win,
You don’t know where I’ve been.
Every scar and every round
Couldn’t keep me on the ground.
I’ve heard your voice a thousand times,
Tell me I won’t make things right.
But I’m still here despite the pain,
So if you want me, fight again.
[(Final Chorus)]
I drive and I get flashbacks,
Days I wish I could have back.
But maybe growing up means knowing
Some things aren’t meant to last.
I’m scared to move, but scared to stay,
Still trying to find my way.
The kid I was still lives in me,
He’s just becoming who he’ll be.
[(Outro)]
So what is it today?
Will you let me slip away?
Or will I wake up one more time,
Knowing that I’ll be alright?
I still drive.
I still cry.
I’m still here—
And I don’t know why…
Goodbye…
