Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm supposed to be running, I'm just catching my breath
Saying "Congratulations," terrified of what's next
Everything is exploding, twenty hours, no sleep
3:00 in the morning, lying there in the street
[PreChorus]
Breaking our backs for a pile of sand
Just to have it all falling out of our hands
Maybe it all gets lost in the end, but
[Chorus]
I'll remember you
No matter where our ways may take us to
And even when the memories slip away
Time will test you
I won't let you fade
[Verse 2]
This is supposed to feel different, why do I feel the same?
Trying to get with the rhythm, I'm all over the place
And the faces in my head say that
What was next might just be the last
We don't want to admit that we are never going back
Revisiting the distance from the present to the past
And don't know how we went from where we were to where we're at
[PreChorus]
Breaking our backs for a pile of sand
Just to have it all falling out of our hands
Maybe it all gets lost in the end, but
[Chorus]
I'll remember you
No matter where our ways may take us to
And even when the memories slip away
[PreChorus]
Breaking our backs for a pile of sand
Just to have it all falling out of our hands
Maybe it all gets lost in the end
[PreChorus]
I know I'm the one that you want to forget, but
[Chorus]
I'll remember you
No matter where our ways may take us to
And even when the memories slip away
[Refrain]
Time will test you
Time will test you
Time will test you
I won't let you fade
I won't let you fade
I won't let you fade
[Outro]
What was next might just be the last
We don't want to admit that we are never going back (I won't let you fade)
Revisiting the distance from the present to the past
And don't know how we went from where we were to where we're at (I won't let you)
