Step away from the fireplace
Pay attention to the fire inside your head
Find yourself some empty space
Start thinking about what a wise man once said
Tie up your shoes, you're gonna lose
Gotta have some way to get ahead
Of everything, of everyone
And never look back, never look back
Stay on the attack
Never look back, never look back
Well everything is some form of the past
Like anything else it never lasts
I keep my eyes on you
'Cause I know if I blink
It will all be gone
I can't stand the aftertaste of the cigarettes
And the emptiness in the halls, in the halls
I can't stand to hear that voice, that happy voice
When you called, when you call
But I carried on, stepped in gear, had a good year
I met you all, I met you all
But I can't stand the emptiness anymore
The emptiness in the halls, in the halls
Well everything is some form of the past
Like anything else it never lasts
Your polaroids stashed in your dresser drawer
Just ink on paper, no nothing more
But there are moments, I know, you can't deny
We look into each other's eyes
We relive every moment of those days
Just for a second, it never stays
It all brings me back, to those days
Just for a second, it never stays
Just brings me back to some form of the past
But like anything else it never lasts
Like anything else, like anything else
Like anything else it never lasts
Like anything else, like anything else
Like anything else it never lasts
