Second Chance
Finn Liam Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sew the seeds to life by packing up to make it right
And all I need
All I need to know
Are you too proud to let it go?
[Chorus]
Well honestly I don't remember who you are
So it seems
And so it seems tonight, you've got that wild look in your eye
What do you need
What do you need to prove?
The woman that you turn into
[Chorus]
The memory has never been the best, you want a second chance
You stand around your haunted home
Those demons won't leave you alone
Don't forget me when you grow old
[Chorus x2]
The memory has never been the best, you want a second chance
You stand around your haunted home
Those demons won't leave you alone
Don't forget me when you grow old
Remember remember
