I know that things have never come too easily for us
And with every door that opened, a dozen seem to shut.
We took a crash course in how to co-exist
But we never once expected this.
We paved the way for others and we did it all ourselves,
Never slowing down or asking anyone for help.
Conviction came when no one else believed in us.
And will you regret all that we've done (we’ve done)
And all the sacrifices for the songs?
Will you even look back when it's gone (it’s gone)
When there's nobody left to sing along?
We had nothing left to lose and we had everything to learn.
We didn't give a damn if home was there when we returned.
We jumped into the seat, drove straight into the dark.
We couldn't wait to disembark.
We learned about each other more with every place we went.
We learned that we had more than just ourselves to represent.
We tried so hard to keep from hitting self-destruct.
And will you regret all that we've done (we’ve done)
And all the sacrifices for the songs?
Will you even look back when it's gone (it’s gone)
When there's nobody left to sing along?
All we are is taking one more song.
Heaven and Hell are both depending on how we bond.
How we all relate to circumstance.
Took the call and took a chance
That leaves us looking up
And helps us to grow up
And helps us to grow up
Don't let it slip away
When every break we got
Would come with such bad luck,
The others gave and took.
We're not oblivious.

0General Comment:Matt: "The music for this song was written back in 04 / 05 with the 'Mutiny!' demos. We were stoked to finally turn it into a song and I wrote the lyrics about an internal conflicting of ideals and doubts within the band. We all have doubts and wonder whether we've chosen the right path in life from time to time, and at the end of the day the only way to win is to choose the path of least regret."
