The Year In Review (Version 2) Lyrics

This day went by in a usual way
Some film was shot
Some songs were played
None of which I'm gonna save
But in the end I'm still the same
But in the end I'm still the same
To clear my head, I took a drive
Went to the sea and realized
That everything that's born will die
Even the best ideas fade
What a way to spend my break
If art is held with honesty
Then why does lying come naturally?
Our books are filled with failed plots
And not the endings that we want
So write out, write out, write out your words
And make up, make up, make up your own
Eventually the sun went down
The air was cool, the stars came out
The melody, it reached my mouth
I sang along with the sounds
That were all around
The beat came from my engine's pain
The sleepy owls arranged the string
The bass was plucked out by the breeze
All of us in perfect harmony
Sometimes it's just that easy
If life is one big symphony,
Don't play your part too cautiously
Let your fingers make mistakes
The crowd will love you for being brave
So ring out, ring out, ring out those notes
And hold up, hold up, hold up your hope
So ring out, ring out, ring out those notes
And hold up, hold up, hold up your hope
