The Past
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sometimes it's hard to let go
When the past is all that we know
Instead of letting chances pass you by
Break down the walls you hold to hide
Let me wipe the tears from your eyes
'Cause I know if I let go
What I'm leaving behind is something that I won't find
And I know if I don't let go
That if time go by my dreams will die
You put up new walls, but I swear I'm gonna break them down
'Cause if I walked away, you wish that I would still be around
Don't wait too long 'cause soon I'll be leaving town
And then alone again you'll be searching for what I've already found
It's hard to let someone in
'Cause the new start means some other ending
We'll never know if we don't try
Like diamonds in the sky
I saw something in your eyes
I will try, I just can't hide my fear of failing
Don't fail me
I will try, I just can't hide my fear of failing
Don't fail me now
Have faith in me now, I won't fail you now
So have faith in me now, I won't fail you now
