About Time

I've gotta get back to my roots, to the only thing
That I was ever good at when I was seventeen
And I know it won't be the same
That nothing gold can stay, and all the other cliches
But I'd do anything for one more day back when I'd sing
How it's about time

I start doing something right
I stop doing what I'm told
Stop being scared
Start waking up
Not wait 'til I get old
To get out this town
Tear all the stop signs down
Feel the wind in my hair
Just one more day without a care

Can we back to the summer of '09
The best one of our lives
The last one of our youth
And I know it's easy to romanticize the good old days in hindsight
But I know it's the truth
And I'd do anything
For one more day back when I'd sing

How it's about time
I start doing something right
I stop doing what I'm told
Stop being scared
Start waking up
Not wait 'til I get old
To get out this town
Tear all the stop signs down
Feel the wind in my hair
Just one more day without a care

Now it's about time that I get back to my roots
Like the summer of '09
Back when everybody knew
How to spend every night like the best one of our lives
Yeah, I'd do anything
For one more summer when we would sing
Tortured Souls and
Sure Things and
The X-Files theme
Yeah, I'd do anything

We can't go back
Just hold on to what we had
Remember those times
But don't linger on the past
I've gotta get back to my roots
Like the last summer of my youth
Yeah, it's about time
It's about time
