Lyrics for Song: Al's War
Lyrics for Album: Hello Rockview [1998]
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
And somehow he thought they'd never understand
That nothing lasts and 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
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)
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 is 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 things
He was the one who always listened
To everything they'd say
But today he's never going back, oh, 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 is like giving up
Whoa, like giving up
Whoa, like giving up
Whoa, I'm not giving up, whoa
