Change;  I  can’t deal with this change.
All  these people, they say  that it’s cause  for inspiration.
 But I’ve got this pain  so real  I see what I’ve gained
 But I feel  like I’ve gotten  here by losing  so much more.
Life  won’t wait for me  to get back on both  my feet again.
 It just likes to sucker  me into the new
 And then flip the switch  on everything I do
 ‘Cause when opportunity  knocks  you have to let her in
 Verse 2 + Chorus 2 are played the same as above
 Change; I could just stay the same but what would that prove to you?
 I’ve got this pain so real I see what I’ve gained
 But I feel like I’m setting myself up to lose it all, it all, it all.
 Life won’t wait for me to get back on both my feet again.
 It just likes to sucker me into the new
 And then flip the switch on everything I do
 ‘Cause when opportunity knocks you have to let her in
 I’ve got three  striped squares I can’t get away from
 Oh, I’ve got no  four walls to call my own
 Yea, I’ve got four  controllers and four good friends
 We keep  it real until our lives all end
Whatever  was I thinking?
 The best  times of my life are just beginning
 END.
