The All-American Rejects - Gonzo
I'll never forget when we started out
The beat of the drum, a face in crowd
It's better this way, it's better this way
How far we've come now not a soul can change
Remember the road running under our feet
We'd shoot for the stars but we'd aim at the trees
It's better this way, it's better this way
Gambling with life, it was our turn to play
It's time
Only when you look forward can you see behind
We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride
Every trial and every test
We drive to the east and we fly to the west
Just running away, just running away
We can be different cause they're all the same
Every night that we'd ever start
And every beat of every heart
Is running away, just running away
Catching our breath at the end we can say
It's time
Only when you look forward can you see behind
Every taste we can get was just sweet sublime
Holding onto the moment we let go of life
We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride
Day after day in the light
We're glowing in the dark
Standing was the sketch
Where falling wasn't hard
We lost ourselves to find
Somewhere down the line
It's time
Day after day in the light
We're glowing in the dark
Standing was the sketch
Where falling wasn't hard
We lost ourselves to find
Somewhere down the line
It's time
For some it's a god, for me it's a fact
We make a mistake and try to take them all back
It's better this way, it's better this way
Out of the grind and then into the grave
It's time
Only when you look forward can you see behind
Every taste we can get was just sweet sublime
Holding onto the moment we let go of life
We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride
We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride
End
