Lyrics

Al said goodbye to his mom and dad
For the first time in his life
Tonight he left the house and
Walked to the waiting car outside
Yeah, somehow he thought they'd never understand
That nothing lasts, yeah
He just knows that time
Is just spinning by and life
Is passing him by so fast
And sometimes I think I'm the only one
Who feels like going nowhere is like giving up
Sometimes I think I'm the only one
Who feels like going
Yeah, Al said to me a few days ago
That he just thought for the first time in his life
He feels that the last few years
Were only a waste of time
(Only a waste of time)
Yeah, and that it was always a compromise
Of what he always felt inside
His declaration
Under the orange street lights
And sometimes I think I'm the only one
Who feels like going nowhere's like giving up
Sometimes I think I'm the only one
Who feels like going
Yeah
He was the one who always did the right thing
He was the one who would always listen to everything they'd say
But today he's never going back
Whoa-oh-oh
And nobody said that there would be days like these
There'd be days like these, there'd be days
And sometimes I think I'm the only one
Who feels like going nowhere is like giving up
Sometimes I think I'm the only one
Who feels like going nowhere's
Like giving up, whoa-oh
Like giving up, whoa-oh-oh-oh
Like giving up, whoa-oh-oh-oh
I'm not giving up, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
