Things Change - American Aquarium

Things change

And people don’t stay the same

It’s all just one big game

Until I realized

She was the one

Who stood there by my side

God knows that woman tried

To make me better

But I let here down

And the fight was never fair

I took more than my share

And kept on takin'

White noise

Like the peaceful highway home

I grew numb to the sound

Of her heart breakin'

Things change

And people don’t stay the same

It’s all just one big game

Until you realize

That you gotta put some skin in

Give up everything you’ve known

'Til the thought of bein' alone

Don’t keep you up at night

Things change

I wasn’t well

My will was anything but strong

If there was a wrong turn to take

I took it

'Til all that was left

Was a shell of who I was

Burned out on love

Broke down and bitter

She pulled me out

My sacred siren song

She came alone

To spark the dyin' embers

Things change

And people don’t stay the same

It’s all just one big game

Until you realize

That you gotta put some skin in

Give up everything you’ve known

'Til the thought of bein' alone

Don’t keep you up at night
