You Can Never Go Back Lyrics

I decided I can't spend my life curled up in a fetal position

Paranoia and dread are integral parts of the human condition

The fire that burns can also cleanse, the flood that rages eventually ends

You need to view through a different lens

The world is full of arrogant people who are boozers and bruisers

They'll try to convince you all of the lie there's only winners and losers

To them compassion's a foreign word, they don't believe the truth when it's heard

Sometimes it's alright to come in third

You can never go back

You can only go forward

You can never go back

You can only go forward

Sit back my friend and I'll tell you a tale

About a world where nobody fails

I know it seems like a fantasy

And it is for people like you and me

So we have to see ourselves in a theatre of fate and reality

Playing our parts as best as we can for an audience we can't see

No room to despair the script isn't set, there's space for the lines that we forget

The final act isn't over yet

You can never go back

You can only go forward

You can never go back

You can only go forward

You can never go back

You can only go forward

You can never go back

You can only go forward
