Same Old Story

I've felt so lost
No sense of direction
Compass spinning
The chance descending
I haven't lost hope
But I'm down to my last breath
Is this some sort of test?

Are we gonna live our lives
Going over the same old story?
What if it all ends tonight?
Will we go up in flames or down in glory?

Stay here forever
We can be sad together
Do it for the kids
Remember when you said
I'll change with you
Now we're gonna have to choose

I want something different
Something I can call mine
I see it from a distance
This dream that I call mine

We can do better
We can be better
We can find ourselves again
We can be that
We can fight back
We can rewrite a better end

We can rewrite a better end
We can do better
We can be better
We can find ourselves again
We can be that we can fight back
I'll be the paper and you be the pen

Are we gonna live our lives
Going over the same old story?
What if it all ends tonight?
Will we go up in flames or down in glory?

I see it from a distance
