about

A letter to the Blue Collar Bullets

lyrics

If there was anything that I could say, it's that I wanted to stay
I wanted to stay
If there was anything that I could change it'd be the way things changed
Every weekend when we would hit that stage and we would start to play
Everything it was ok
Nothing's ever felt that way but something's changed and now I just can't stay

If there's one thing I learned from the miles that we've traveled
One thing I've learned from the past
No one can change themselves for someone else
And not everything was built to last

But as long as I live I will want it all back
It was all that I needed
All that I had
So for all that we've done and for all we've been through
This one's for you

If there was anything that I could say, it's that I wanted to stay
I wanted to stay
If there was anything that I could change it'd be the way things changed
Every weekend when we would hit that stage and we would start to play
Everything it was ok
Nothing's ever felt that way
Something has changed

If there's one thing I learned from the miles that we've traveled
One thing I've learned from the past
No one can change themselves for someone else
And not everything was built to last

But as long as I live I will want it all back
It was all that I needed
All that I had
So for all that we've done and for all we've been through
This one's for you
