Lyrics

Vanguard

[Intro]

Wave goodbye, as we turn our backs on our past

Wave goodbye, cut our future short to pave a new path

Wave goodbye, we dropped it all on a dime to be on our own

Wave goodbye, as we make the escape into the unknown

We pushed through shattering expectations

Filled with dreams, filled with heartache

We pushed through shattering expectations

Filled with dreams, filled with heartache

[Verse]

We're still standing strong, standing strong

As we keep living on, living on

[Outro]

Free fall

Close your eyes and take the dive

Free fall

Close your eyes and take the dive

Free fall

Close your eyes, and take the dive

This is your new purpose in life, This is your new purpose in life

Free fall

Close your eyes, and take the dive

This is your new purpose in life, This is your new purpose in life

Free fall

Close your eyes, and take the dive

This is your new purpose in life, This is your new purpose in life

Free Fall

This is your new purpose in life, This is your new purpose in life
