Have you ever just packed everything you own and left somewhere You’ve known for so long and traded it in for the unknown Three hours away from home where you’re a stranger in a strange place And not used to such a slow pace, so this is why I’ve seen the seasons change in this city for far too long That its time to find where I belong Find where I belong This apartment on Stow Ave, two dead end jobs and this band Now make up who I am and who I’ve always tried to be It might not seem that perfect, but it all serves one purpose To ensure I do what I love cause this life fits like a glove I’ve seen the seasons change in this city for far too long That its time to find where I belong As the seasons change from winter to spring, I know my life will begin to change as I write this down on a new page Through all the ups and downs, I still love this town I’ll keep my head held high, this song will tell you why Through all the good and bad, we’ll drink to the times we’ve had So keep your glasses raised, all dogs will have their day Through all the ups and downs, I still love this town I’ll keep my head held high, this song will tell you why Through all the good and bad, we’ll drink to the times we’ve had So keep your glasses raised, all dogs will have their day

So here we go To the change in tide in my life with you by my side Since day one you’ve been there for me through everything And now, we spend our days together watching TV on our couch at Stow The street outside our house after all finally feels like a home This is me taking yet another chance with my life So please don’t let me down this time From the day we said hello to the day we say goodbye I wanted to let you know that you were always worth my time And if and when we’re ever to go both our separate ways I know no matter what I’ll find my way back to you someday I’ll find my way back to you someday It’s hard to keep my head up when video games And How I Met Your Mother are the only things keeping me sane But you make it so easy to put a smile back on my face You do it so casually and with nothing short of grace This is me taking yet another chance with my life I hope you won’t let me down this time From the day we said hello to the day we say goodbye I wanted to let you know that you were always worth my time And if and when we’re ever to go both our separate ways I know no matter what I’ll find my way back to you someday I’ll find my way back to you someday, I’ll find my way back to you someday From the day that we said hello to the day we say goodbye I wanted to let you know that you were always worth my time

Let’s Go Stuck in this worn out basement with a window without a view I wouldn’t trade the world for anything when I’m with all of you Playing these songs about the past few months of my short life You always had a vision of changing the world but just lost sight So this is me with my heart out on my sleeve for all of you to see Not in it for the fortune or the fame, but the feeling it starts inside Our hearts will never skip a beat or ever admit a true defeat One day we might see eye to eye but if not I’ll say goodbye Twenty-two with no direction or anything better to do When we look back on what we’ve done, we know we’ve paid our dues Driving down this highway without a permanent destination Wouldn’t have it any other way, there is no question So this is me with my heart out on my sleeve for all of you to see Not in it for the fortune or the fame, but the feeling it starts inside Our hearts will never skip a beat or ever admit a true defeat One day we might see eye to eye but if not I’ll say goodbye I’d rather put a bullet to my head than know my dreams were dead All washed up on shore leaving me wanting more I’d rather put a bullet to my head than know my dreams were dead All washed up on shore leaving me wanting more So this is me with my heart out on my sleeve for all of you to see Not in it for the fortune or the fame, but the feeling it starts inside Our hearts will never skip a beat or ever admit a true defeat One day we might see eye to eye but if not I’ll say goodbye Our hearts will never skip a beat or ever admit a true defeat One day we might see eye to eye but if not I’ll say goodbye

I knew that you had made up your mind The look on your face could tell it’s time Is this the end of what we used to be Never thought of you without me So I’m writing you this long shot letter in an attempt to make things better for just a little while This is how, I’d like to begin I’m here for now, so don’t be stupid I have a question, please tell the truth Have we given up what’s left of our youth I knew that this had taken its toll There was nothing that could fill this hole All this time spent away on the road Your voice became a dial tone So I’m writing you this long shot letter in an attempt to make things better for just a little while This is how, I’d like to begin I’m here for now, so don’t be stupid I have a question, please tell the truth Have we given up what’s left of our youth Its been a few years since I could feel real Will things stay the same, or just fade away I have a question, please tell the truth Have we given up what’s left of our youth I have a question, please tell the truth Have we given up what’s left of our youth I have a question, please tell the truth
