The Hardest Part

The years fly, they go by Flashing like neon lights Burning out a little faster The long nights, the deadlines The need to make the headlines Every day's an uphill battle Wonder if it even matters All this time just piles up And I don't know why but I get lost in, how it was back then Back before I learned to worry Long before somebody hurt me Didn't have to numb my mind 'Cause I wasn't on borrowed time Before I knew this rollercoaster Wouldn't stop when I got older Waiting for this broken ride to start Was the hardest part Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh What happened to that kid Who still believed in magic? Planes of paper in the sky but Now she's in a downward spiral All this time just piles up And I don't know why but I get lost in, how it was back then Back before I learned to worry Long before somebody hurt me Didn't have to numb my mind 'Cause I wasn't on borrowed time Before I knew this rollercoaster Wouldn't stop when I got older And waiting for this broken ride to start Was the hardest part Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh I just wanna go back I can never go back, but I look back sometimes I just wanna go back I can't live like that, that's why they call it a past life (I wanna go back) I just wanna go back (But I know that) I can never go back, but I look back sometimes (I can't go back to a past life) I just wanna go back, I can't live like that That's why they call it a past life (Wanna go back) I just wanna go back (But I know that I can't go back) I can never go back, but I look back sometimes I just wanna go back, I just wanna go back Back before I learned to worry Long before somebody hurt me Didn't have to numb my mind 'Cause I wasn't on borrowed time Before I knew this rollercoaster Wouldn't stop when I got older And waiting for this broken ride to start Before I built these walls around my heart And waiting for this broken ride to start Was the hardest part Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
