How many times do we walk away
And say to ourselves some other day
How many times do we say to ourselves “if only”
If only this, if only that, if only I wasn’t just where I’m at
If only she loved me, if it wasn’t for him
If only I could start it over again
Empty rooms and vacant tombs
We’re never who we wanted to be
And we’re always pretending we’re someone else
Someone who doesn’t just hate themselves
But stand up, get up, sit up, jump, jump, all you can do
Is not let the world tear you in two
Forget their opinions cause they don’t mean much
Forgive their decisions cause they’re just out of touch
Unable to dance, unable to laugh
Unable to throw their arms at the chance
And always taking things seriously
And never being who they wanted to be
When I met you your eyes where like gasoline
So slick and so cold and wanting to please
And maybe it’s me that burned you out
That caused you to question and made you feel doubt
But stand up, get up, sit up, jump, jump, all you can do
Is not let the world tear you in two
Forget their opinions cause they don’t mean much
Forgive their decisions cause they’re just out of touch
Unable to dance, unable to laugh
Unable to throw their arms at the chance
And always taking things seriously
And never being who they wanted to be
Unable to burn the bridges they make
Unable to take a chance and make a change
Unable learn from the choices they take
Unable to grow from their mistakes
Take a chance to throw it all away!
Unable to dance, unable to laugh
Unable to throw their arms at the chance
And always taking things seriously
And never being who they wanted to be
But stand up, get up, sit up, jump, jump, all you can do
Is not let the world tear you in two
Forget their opinions cause they don’t mean much
Forgive their decisions cause they’re just out of touch
