Memento

(album: Playing The Saint - 2018)

Remember not too long ago
I was breaking the mold
Always breaking the mold
I was at an all time low
But I let the drive in me take its hold
Days keep slipping by so fast
And each moment could be the last time I see the bright side
I'm still holding on

I'm not looking back
I'm never looking back
To what I think I've done wrong
Cause every regret will be the death of me
And I will always march on

Remember all those years ago
I was careless and cold
All the excuses bought and sold
Tides have shifted
I have grown
But you'd never know
You've abandoned all hope
Days keep slipping by us way too fast
Any given moment could be the very last time
That I look into your eyes
I'm still holding on

I'm not looking back
I'm never looking back
To what I think I said wrong
Cause every regret will be the death of me
And I will always march on

The soldier in me
Will never lay down in defeat
So I won't ever have to suffer again
All the battle scars
And the times in the dark
Will be worth it
If you just open up your eyes
The hurt will never compare to the happiness
Just open your eyes
And you'll see it, say it
You'll see it, see it
Don't ever turn back
Cause all that's waiting is regret
I won't ever let them take me to the grave
I will never bow down
In the throes of war
They can take all they want from me
But that won't make me question my identity anymore
Never forget what you've been fighting for

I'm not looking back
I'm never looking back
To every single little thing in my life
That's gone so very wrong
Every regret will kill me
But I have and will always march on

Said and done it's out of my hands

I'm never looking back
To every moment I can't bring back
They speed by so fast
