Let's all think back on what brought us here.
This is my grasp on what is real,
don't tell me how I feel.
With all that's passed I can't relate
with myself from day to day.
Why does everything seem so far away
to me?

There's no turning back from here,
I've got to get away from everyone who's left,
everyone who's left.
I'll tell the saddest story
of how we made it through this past year.
I'll tell the saddest story
of how we made it through this past year.
They said we'd walk away,
(You'll never make it if you can't speak for yourself)
they said we'd fade away.

We've all been down this path before,
you're trapped in this town
and it wears you down.
When we leave today 
then maybe you'll understand,
this constant struggle isn't 
always in the palm of our hand.

There's no turning back from here,
I've got to get away from everyone who's left,
everyone who's left.
I'll tell the saddest story
of how we made it through this past year.
I'll tell the saddest story
of how we made it through this past year.
They said we'd walk away,
(You'll never make it if you can't speak for yourself)
they said we'd fade away.

This man will stand the test of time,
this man will stand the test of time,
this man will stand the test of time,
this man will stand the test of time.

I'll tell the saddest story
of how we made it through this past year.
I'll tell the saddest story
of how we made it through this past year
