Couldn't beat them so you joined them
Wanted freedom and got boredom
They wanted you to stay where you are
Their game had no meaning
You found fame and it was fleeting
You became someone else's star
Now all your memories feel more like films
You put them on to see which ones still kill
You wonder why the bad ones pay the bills
All the time
Every night
You say another prayer
There's a heaven
I'll say it's anywhere you're forgiven all the time
I think it's time
Took a drive with the whole family that you decided
We're so happy but you were silent
Sitting in the back seat of the car
And time passes too slowly
And all at once you're so much older
Making wishes on someone else's star
All the time
Every night
You say another prayer
There's a heaven I'll say it's anywhere you're forgiven
All the time
I think it's time
To let it go
You gotta let it go
Now all your second chances feel like thirds
You wonder what you wanted in the first
Used to feel it all now it just hurts
All the time
Every night
You say another prayer
There's a heaven I say it's anywhere you're forgiven
All the time
It's time
I think it's time
