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
Yea, 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's
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)
Yes, it was always a compromise,
Of what he always felt inside
His declaration,
Under the orange street light

And sometimes I think,
I'm the only one who feels
Like going nowhere's
Like giving up
Sometimes I think,
I'm the only one who feels like going
Yeah-ah

He was the one,
Who always did the right things
He was the one who would always
Listen to everything they say
But today, he's never going back (Woah-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's
Like giving up
Sometimes I think,
I'm the only one who feels
Like going nowhere's
Like giving up
Woah-oh,
Like giving up
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
Like giving up
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm not giving up
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
