Letter To The Past lyrics

It's a game

Baby, it's just a game

And nobody loses when you learn to love the one

Who finally wins sometimes

You'll be wrong

'Cause sometimes, we get it wrong

But nobody leaves here alive

And nothin' holy comes from bein' right

So don't hold your breath like that

Baby, let it go

You're gonna feel it in your back

Believe me, I oughta know

You're a stone wall

In a world full of rubber bands

You're a pillar of belief

Still bitin' your shakin' hands

Folks are gonna lean on you

And leave when the cracks appear

But, darlin', I'll be here

I'll be the last

You're my letter to the past

You can cry

You know it's always okay to cry

You don't even need to know why

But don't you ever feel alone inside

If you need to know the truth

I still haven't got a clue

If the blind can lead the blind

Then, baby, I'm just like you

You're a stone wall

In a world full of rubber bands

You're a pillar of belief

Still fightin' your empty hands

Folks are gonna lean on you

And leave when the cracks appear

But, darlin', I'll be here

I'll be the last

You're my letter to the past

You're a stone wall

In a world full of rubber bands

You're a pillar of belief

Still hidin' your empty hands

Folks are gonna lean on you

And leave when the cracks appear

Darlin', I will be here

I'll be the last

You're my letter to the past

It's a game

You know it's okay to lose a game

But always remember your name

And have no shame

Because you're built to last
