We've been on earth too long
Good God, please strike us down
We used to roam around
With friends together through the town
But that was so long ago
And now the world has changed
My friends don't look the same
Packed and moved away and
I've not seen them since the day
We lost hope so long ago
Born two blocks apart
I'm sorry I stole your heart
But in my defense
Yeah, I was full of innocence
And you took that away from me
But now the world has changed
My first love got engaged
Oh how much I hoped
That one day we would elope
And the rest would be history
8 years since I've been clean
I can't explain what it means
Or the hopeful effect that it has
It's time to close the book
And burn it up for good
Is this how it ends?
How it ends
How it ends
How it ends
How it ends
8 years since I've been clean
I can't explain what it means
Or the hopeful effect that it has
It's time to close the book
And burn it up for good
This is how it ends
How it ends.
