This is now

 

This is now

And I don't care about last year

Can't be afraid of what the future holds no fear

You want the past and the safety it brings

It doesn't mean anything

We've come to far

There's no going back now

Bring on the future with an open embrace

Memories I will erase

Memories I will erase

This is the end

This is the end of chasing dreams gone by

Everlong is this goodbye and this

This is the end

This is the end of our respect denied

Stand with us or stand aside

 

Only now

Do you pretend to care about this

You suffocated anything that came between us

Took every condescending barb and sting

I don't owe you anything

So here we stand

Farewell is forever

And if you think that it's joke or lie

Look me in these blackened eyes

Look me in these blackened eyes

This is the end

This is the end of chasing dreams gone by

Everlong is this goodbye and this

This is the end

This is the end of our respect denied

Stand with us or stand aside

 

Bastards you bastards

May you suffer oh so long (oh so long)

Bastards you bastards

So long

 

Brothers my brothers

Why have you forsaken me (forsaken me)

Brothers my brothers

So be

 

Deny those that will never accept

Empty words are just empty regrets

Let go the bile that your soul has amassed

With this let the dye be cast

This is the end

This is the end of chasing dreams gone by

Everlong is this goodbye and this

This is the end

This is the end of our respect denied

Stand with us or stand aside aside
