Al's War - Less Than Jake
Al said goodbye to his
Mom and dad for the first time in his life
Tonight he left the house
And walked to the waiting car outside
And somehow he thought they'd never understand
That nothing lasts and he just knows that time
Is just spinning by and life
Is passing him by so fast
And sometimes I think
I'm the only one who feels like going
Nowhere's like giving up
Sometimes I think
I'm the only one who feels like going
Al said to me a few days ago
That he just thought for the first time in his life
He feels that the last few years
Were only a waste of time
Were only a waste of time
And it was always a compromise
Of what he always felt inside
His declaration
Under the orange street lights
And sometimes I think
I'm the only one who feels like going
Nowhere's like giving up
Sometimes I think
I'm the only one who feels like going
He was the one who always did the right thing
He was the one
Who would always listen to everything they'd say
But today
He's never going back
And nobody said there would be days like these
There'd be days like these
There'd be days
And sometimes I think
I'm the only one who feels like going
Nowhere's like giving up
Sometimes I think
I'm the only one who feels like going
Nowhere's like giving up
Like giving up
Like giving up
Like giving up
