Separate Ways

[Lyrics]

 

School is over

Been five hours

And here we are now

Partying the night away

Time has passed and

We're so happy

Moving on, we're looking to the future

 

Five months passed us by

Hard to believe

We haven't seen eachother much

The party songs are playin' in my head

Like phone calls

And the laughs we shared

The things we said

The fights we had

I wonder why there's never anything

That I can find to say to you?

 

We have gone our

Seperate ways

In silence I hope that

Our paths will someday cross again

Friends forever

That's what we said

But we can't neglect

The way we're changing

With the pass of time

 

Here we are now

Five years later

It's been awhile since we hung around

We're still smilin'

Names and faces often come and go

But the days are longer

And the nights are cold

Ten years later

Back in high school

Friends we haven't seen

And friends we never had

In truth time changes

Everything that we are

And it takes that journey

Just to understand that

 

We have gone our

Seperate ways

In silence I hope that

Our paths will someday cross again

Friends forever

That's what we said

But we can't neglect

The way we're changing

With the pass of time

About This Song:

This song is about graduating from high school and going out into the real world. The way relationships and friendships change, mature, dissipate, and renew with the course of time. Musically, and in the latter's case, lyrically, this song was partly inspired by Staind's Epiphany, and Hedley's Old School, but the lyrics are entirely based on my own experiences (well, except for the last verse. Give it another few years).

 

I hope you enjoy this track. Out of all of the ones I did when I started out, this is the one that I'm unquestionably the most proud of and would love to re-visit.
