| Lyrics |
Al said goodbye to his mam and dad
For the first time in his life
Tonight left the house and walked out to
The waiting car outside and
Somehow he thought they'd never understand
That nothing lasts and he just knows
That time is juat spinning by
And life is passing him by so fast
And sometimes i think i'm the only one
That feels like going nowhere is like giving up
Al said to me a few days
Ago that he just
Thought for the first time in his life
He feels the last 10 years were only
A waste of time and that it was
Only a compromise of what he
Always felt inside
His declaration of independence said to me
Under the orange street lights
He was the one who always
Did the right thing
He was the one that listened to
Everything they'd say
But today he's never going back
