Never Will

I heard, "Go on and go
But just know where you're going's a dead end
Playin' in bars only makes you the star of a house band"
And sometimes, the hardest part was just to keep playin'
I'd been gone long ago if I'd listened
To what they were sayin', what they were sayin'

But I didn't, I don't, I never will
No, they just started a fire they can't control
And I wouldn't trade one moment for the way it feels
Know that I didn't, I don't, I never will

They say seein' your name up in lights
You know it's gonna change up
You'll look in the mirror some night
And you'll see a stranger

But you gotta play the game
If you ever wanna play to the big crowds
You've gone as far as you'll ever go
Unless you're willin' to sell out, girl, sell out

Well, I didn't, I don't, I never will
No, they just started a fire they can't control
And I wouldn't trade one moment for the way it feels
Know that I didn't, I don't, I never will
Oh, I never will

"Money and fame, it'll go to your head if you get it"
They never did understand all the reasons we did it
I can point out the names and the faces of the people who said it
Oh, but honestly, I just don't want 'em to get any credit

Oh, I didn't, no, I never will, I never will
Oh, they just started a fire they can't control, oh no, no
You know I wouldn't trade one moment for the way it feels
The way it feels
I didn't, I don't, I never will
I never will
