Al's War

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] And sometimes I think, "Am I the only one Who feels like going nowhere is like giving up?" Sometimes I think I'm the only one who feels like going [Verse 2] 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 Yes, it was always a compromise of what he always felt inside His declaration under the orange street light [Chorus] And sometimes I think, "Am I the only one Who feels like going nowhere is like giving up?" Sometimes I think I'm the only one who feels like going [Bridge] Yeah, he was the one who always did the right things He was the one who would always listen to everything they'd say But today he's never going back And nobody said that there would be days like these There'd be days like these, there'd be days [Outro] Sometimes I think, "Am I 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, like giving up Whoa, I'm not giving up Whoa
