lyrics

Yesterday is a million miles away
But we all try to hitch a ride there sometimes
It feels so good in a familiar neighborhood
With lows and highs that you finally recognize
Nothing feels the same
No one knows your name there anymore

There we stand with our childhood in our hands
Sad and free with no place to keep these memories
Except on this street where we grew up so bittersweet
It feels so strange to understand how tastes can change
So the years fly past
The glory seems to last forever

You want to go back and just live it all over
But you can’t go back no more
There’s not much else to say
You gotta move on and take another step forward
That’s what living’s for
And its who you are today
see yourself again
Reflection never ends

And so it goes a broken trail of dominos
One by one they all fall to comparison
Connect the dots on a timeline full of knots
We can’t untie no matter how hard we try
Now those days are gone
Time keeps rolling on and on and on

You want to go back and just live it all over
But you can’t go back no more
There’s not much else to say
You gotta move on and take another step forward
That’s what living’s for
And its who you are today
see yourself again
Reflection never ends

It’s so hard to grow up
When the world’s going round and round
It’s so hard to hang on
When you’re upside down…
