Face It
Impulse Manslaughter Lyrics

Remembering back on your life
Recalling past events of your life

At a time things were different then
Reminiscing a time period which is now different

Wasn't sure what time would bring
Had no idea what the future had in store

But you knew it couldn't be the same
Had a feeling that change was inevitable

The feelings you had, the power they held
The emotions that were so strong and impactful

Knew deep down inside no matter how you tried.
In spite of all attempts, change was bound to happen

It just wouldn't last, the magic would die
The charm and excitement were fleeting

You hoped it wouldn't happen, didn't want it to go away
Wished and prayed for things to remain unaltered

Prayed it wouldn't happen, didn't want it to go away
Wanted change to abstain, which led to hopeless prayers

Like everything else their memory begins to fade
Recollections and memories tend to fade like everything else

So much time has gone away so many things had to change
A lot of time has passed, and innumerable alterations have occurred

Now what are you gonna do
Questioning oneself about the way forward

Sit around and mope or get off your ass
Deciding between wallowing in self-pity or being proactive

Stop feeling sorry for yourself
Avoid self-pity and look for ways to progress

You know you want it back but theres nothing you can do
Desiring the past but realizing it is not within control

You've got to stop living in the past
Needs to move past the bygone era

And go on with the rest of your life
Proceeding with the remaining life

It's just fact of life
It is a part of existence

You've gotta accept the fact
Acknowledging the truth

That things aren't going to have to stay the same
Everything has to change

And you're not the only one in hoping they would stay
Others also aspire for things to remain stable

Why can't you put as much power of your feelings
Questioning the lack of action

Into something useful to make an effort
Channeling emotions towards useful work

To overcome and make a new life for yourself
Surmount obstacles and establish a new way of living

Just because things aren't the same
The incongruity in the current and past scenario

Doesn't mean they can't be as good or even better
Opportunities for a better future are present

Rise above the change don't let it keep holding you back forever
Overcoming change and not letting it hinder future innovations

Once you see you can fully control your fate
Taking charge of life's path

Then you'll know that you should just do the best you can
Giving the best effort each time

And you'll find out that that it's not so bad
Discovering that the future isn't dreadful

At least you'll know that you gave it your best shot
Assured that no matter the outcome, gave it everything
