Verse: Driving with the windows down, playing Mxpx loud, "Responsibility" was the soundtrack to our lives. Endless days at the lake, not regretting past mistakes. Where friends became brothers and time couldn't fade away.
Chorus: All these Summer nights spent with my best friends, not waiting to get old and time couldn't catch us and even though our lives have changed we won't forget a single thing. We're getting older but in our hearts we'll always be this young.
End: We'll always be this young.

Verse 1: Its been a long time since we started down this road. I can't forget the first time I met you. But I may be guilty of taking you for granted, just know my heart won't sway, my love for you won't go away.
Pre-Chorus: You told me everything I needed to know without saying a single word and that sad look on your face won't go away and that's what's killing me.
Chorus: Our lives are made up of all these anniversaries, looks like we made it another year my darling. But I'm not saying that this next year will come easy, but I am praying for a lifetime of anniversaries.
Verse 2: It's not the words we speak, it's things that we left unsaid. My heart collapses as I watch us fall apart. So please, please don't give up on me. I know this life we have is worth fighting for.
Bridge: Just so you know, you're everything, you're everything, you're everything to me.
Well we don't have too much time to make things alright, so take my hand baby and sing with me.

Saying Goodbye

Verse 1: If home is where the heart is, than my home is long gone. I trusted you to keep me safe, but look at what you've done. You said that you were different, but you turned out like the rest, a notch on my bed post and another hole in my chest.
Pre-Chorus: What happened to you? I guess the person that I loved doesn't exist. What happened to you? In your arms I found a home, now you're gone again. I'm saying goodbye this last time.
Chorus: Giving up is all you're good at, look how far I've come since then. I'm still learning to live my life without you, it seems like I'll miss you forever.
I'll sleep alone tonight. An empty space by my side. A missing piece of my life. I'll sleep alone tonight.
Verse 2: I was just another victim on your list of tragedies. I ate up all your lies and all your fucking fallacies. I lived my life for you and I never deserved this. You made me start to hate myself and sealed with a kiss.
Bridge: Just keep believing those lies, you can't convince me that this is true. Just keep conceiving your lies, I hope they make you feel better at night. Just keep believing those lies. Just keep conceiving your lies. I'm saying goodbye.

Verse 1: Johnny was just a kid not knowing what to do. He grew up thinking that he knew all that he wanted to. He picked a job out of a hat and he swore he'd see it through, but later down the road he found himself begging for something new.
Pre-Chorus: You take the backseat to your life, when all you have to do is shut up and drive.
Chorus: So are you happy with what you have? If you're not I'd understand. But there's no reason not to change, it makes no sense to stay that way. Don't waste your time on feeling low, just get back up again.
Verse 2: Stacy was just a kid who thought she had a plan, she followed it the whole way through, now she works for the man. She wishes she could change her life, she just wants to go back in time, but she won't while she's still afraid.
Bridge: John and Stacy are growing old and their time's almost up. You can be happy whenever you want to, just make your choices and change.
End: No excuses, they're fucking useless. Happiness sure has it's uses. Take the wheel now, steer your own life, there's no reason not to enjoy the ride.

Verse 1:
I never should have turned my back when I saw that knife in your hand. The writing on the wall written in the blood from the wound that you left me here.
Pre-Chorus 1:
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, what the fuck did I do? What the fuck did I do?
Verse 2:
So let me tell you this sweet friend; to me you might as well be dead. Well I wrote you off like I wrote this song. Best friends make better enemies.
Pre-Chorus 2:
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, what the fuck did you do? What the fuck did you do?
Chorus:
I don’t want to hear what you have to say and put up with your lies every single day. I’ll stop wasting my time, wasting my time on you. And one little thing that I learned this year was take the friends you've got and keep them near and dear, because good friends, good friends are hard to find.
Bridge:
Well I’m thinking of went wrong and I’d be lying if I said I wasn't sad. I’m thinking of what you've done and I’d be lying if I said I wasn't glad, I'm glad that you are gone.
Final Chorus: I don’t want to hear what you have to say and put up with your lies every single day. I’ll stop wasting my time, wasting my time on you. One little thing that I learned this year was take the friends you've got and keep them near and dear, because good friends, good friends are hard to find. Well i said, good friends, good friends are hard to find. They're hard to find.

Verse 1:
So many mistakes have been made, a lot of bumps along the way to where we are right now. We keep going, we’re not sure how. Who do we blame this time? Us or them, is this our sign? Is it time to call it quits? Should we stop while we’re still behind?
Pre-Chorus:
Well I don’t want to tear this whole thing apart, but I wouldn't still be here if this wasn't in my heart. In our hearts.
Chorus:
And after all that has been said, we’re still hanging on here by a thread. We’ve come a long way from our start, and all I want is to leave our mark. But these songs, will last a lifetime and these songs, will last a lifetime. In my heart I'm still living my dreams, but these songs will last a lifetime.
Verse 2:
With this song we march along, with this song we carry on. We’ll never call it quits, until our hearts stop beating in our chests. This runs to deep to stop, we’ll never give it up. We love it all too much, we’ll sail this sinking ship and make our own luck.
End:
Our hearts beat strong and our souls stay golden. We won’t lose faith in what we love. This anthem won’t die; it will live forever in our hearts.

Verse 1: Turn on the radio, hear songs that I don't know, not sure I ever will want to. I think back to my past, Pennywise and Anti-Flag, Nofx and Bad Religion too.
Pre-Chorus 1: Fight till you die, murder the government and conquer the world. Dial 911 for peace, this is the journey to end.
Verse 2: My musical heritage, the music that I live and not sure where I'd be without. Some say it's dead and gone, but I know they're dead wrong. It lives in me and I don't believe in your doubt.
Pre-Chorus 2: No matter what lays ahead we can't forget our past. These punk rock heroes and legends that shaped our whole world. 1, 2, SING IT WITH US!
Chorus: We'll never go back. You can't take our past. And while the future's unclear we still know, we still know where we came from.

Verse 1:
And if I close my eyes and throw myself in head first, would anybody miss me? Would anybody miss me? And if I was drowning in the water and screaming for your help, would you be there to save me? Would you be there to save me?
Pre-chorus:
So let me say congratulations. Well take a bow this is your fault, for a broken heart and failed love. And I won’t say this out of spite, but let me give credit where it’s due, I put all the blame on you.
Chorus:
I’m sinking and please don’t mind me. I’ve been to hell and back again trying hard to just be friends. I’m sinking and it’s too late to give a damn. I’m your favorite afterthought, goodbye you won’t see me again.
Verse 2:
And if I lose my will to continue this fight, would you help me weather through this storm? Would you help me weather through this storm? And if I said I don’t care if I die and sink down, would you even shed a tear for me? Would you even shed a tear for me?
Bridge/Breakdown:
This pain will make you stronger.
And if I left this place, would you miss me here? Thousands of memories and all of the years. Well I’m tired and not cut out for this sort of pain. I have nothing left for me here and my time is ending.
End:
For as sad as I’ve been and as lonely as I am, I could never hurt my family like that. But I’ll be just fine with my friends by my side, I’ll be just fine, I'll be just fine.

Verse 1: Where has all the time gone? I can't believe we're here. We're not the same as we once were, but in our hearts we're still the same damn kids.
Pre-Chorus: I can still hear the singing coming from my bedroom, and it still makes me smile now. And when our voices are gone, we will find a way to hold onto these days.
Chorus: So let me sing this swan song, our time's almost gone. I've been writing down this eulogy all along. And let's sing this swan song, our time has finally come. So we'll say good night our eulogy is done.
Verse 2: Maybe all these glory days, are days long since passed. Let's just say we may have run our course, but I can die happy knowing what we did.
End: If this is the end, I'm thankful for my friends and all the memories we had. I'll hold them in my heart forever.
