lifeblood: songs: lyrics: feel this way again


i know you wanna
hurry through your homework
youth is a hungry beast
i know you wanna
rise in the west
and set in the east

you're a planet and you're being born
(you're a planet and you're being born)
your heart explodes in love and then its torn
(even then your heart is torn)
one day you'll try to make it back
when you're older and you're restless and you miss the past
but for today just feel your feelings and hang out with your friends
because it's never gonna feel this way again

you probably won't
(you probably won't)
marry this one
(marry this one)
though she feels like your forever girl
(feels like your forever girl)
(somehow you'll save the best)
somehow you'll save the
best for the last
even as you're saving the world
you're a hero-heroine of destiny
and i would hand you the keys
if it were up to me
one day you'll try to make it back
when you're older and you're restless and you miss the past
but for today just feel your feelings and hang out with your friends
because it's never gonna feel this way again

the music's loud
the band is tight
your heart's in your throat
cuz it's homecoming night
you dressed up just enough to look dressed down
look in the mirror you're the mayor of this town

for everyone who
put you down
we're the ones who love you as you are
walk it loud like you're fluid and proud
you got permission
to use the car
and tonight you got your playlists cranked
and the feeling is better than any one you've ever had

one day you'll try to make it back
when you're older and you're restless and you miss the past
but for today just feel your feelings and hang out with your friends
because it's never gonna feel this way
never gonna feel this way
never gonna feel this way again
