Looking Back

by AJ   Feb 12, 2008


This was actually meant to be a song, but it makes pretty good reading:

Looking back it's funny how,

Were on our own now, how does that feel?

We went through hell to get here,

Waited till we were 18, now we're here,

How does that feel?

We all dreamed, we all waited,

We all wanted to escape,

Do what we wanted,

Now we're there, how does that feel,

Now we're there, how does that feel?

Now that we're there,

Just where do we go?

This life has changed,

Some worse, some better,

Where do we go?

We cant go back, we cant stop time,

So just where do we go?

Some want to forget, change their past,

We remember, the scars, the pain,

The world brought them to us,

Girls, parents, friends, its all the cruel world,

But how can we forget, the lessons they taught,

Hard learned, never forgotten,

But remembered, and appreciated,

But now that were here, just where do we go,

But now that were here, where do we go??
