Untitled

They can laugh at themselves
Maybe even cry
They can celebrate grandly
And sometimes they can fly

They can almost drown
and still make it out okay
They can lose it all
But grin all the way

Bungee jump, sing on stage
Play the guitar bit on that awesome track
Count to ten, control all the rage
But they know that they can never go back

And you envy them
and you curse and blame
while they laugh at you
and pretend it's still the same

But they can't go back
It's too far away
The bridges are burned
They have to stay

And once there were watches
Now there are only blue skies
If the tower has fallen
Doesn't matter how long you fly...

So, they laugh some more
and settle down for the ride
And when you begin to worry
they brush your concern aside

Coz though you would never ever guess
They know that they're here to stay
No, they can't ever go back
It's just so very far away
