One thing I know, I will survive
And you're not passing judgement on how I run my life
Feel the need to make it right
'Cause if life takes you under
You're such a sorry sight
In this crazy life you can't turn back the pages
The scars won't heal the memories, but you try
Nothing's gonna last forever.

Wouldn't you like to come with me?
I can't find a reason why I'd stay.
I thought I could make it
But I just couldn't shake it
Wouldn't you like to break away?

Look at me, I'm free at last
And for those who really know me
I only gave my best
There were times I compromised
But baby in return they're throwing dust in my eyes
Well I've been there without taking half the chances
The life I lead without a finish line
Isn't gonna last forever.
