Pages
There for Tomorrow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The turns you had to take still keep you awake
Down come the walls where you once stood
From constant changes you have made
You'll keep inside til you have a say

We change as we get older
Were not to stay
The days we walked are over

Now we just drive away
From everything I know
You're counting days on the back of your hands
You turn the pages til you have no more plans

The only time you had to think of all the things involved
Came when you were least expecting
And now its up to us to replace it
To tell us when ages have made a difference
Cause changes tell just who we are

We change as we get older
Were not to stay
The days we walked are over

Now we just drive away
From everything I know
You're counting days on the back of your hands
You turn the pages til you have no more plans

Now were just miles away
From all that we could be
You're counting days on the back of your hands
We turn the pages

Remember the days you've counted won't be forgotten




I hope you won't leave yourself out
When we turn the pages

The turns you had to take still keep you awake
Decisions made in the past continue to haunt and affect you in the present


Down come the walls where you once stood
The things that once gave you security and stability are now gone


From constant changes you have made
You've gone through a lot of changes and transformations over time


You'll keep inside til you have a say
You're holding back your thoughts and emotions until you have the opportunity to express yourself


Now we just drive away
We've moved on from our past and are ready to start anew


From everything I know
We're leaving behind all that we've ever known


You're counting days on the back of your hands
You're anxiously waiting for something to happen, keeping track of time as it passes


You turn the pages til you have no more plans
You're trying to figure out what to do next, flipping through the metaphorical pages of your life story


The only time you had to think of all the things involved
You only had the chance to contemplate the consequences of your actions after the fact


Came when you were least expecting
These realizations arose unexpectedly and caught you off guard


And now its up to us to replace it
It's our responsibility to create a new future for ourselves


To tell us when ages have made a difference
To acknowledge and recognize the impact of time on our lives


Cause changes tell just who we are
Our experiences and transformations shape us into the person we are today


Now were just miles away
We've put distance between ourselves and our past


From all that we could be
We've left behind the potential paths we could have taken in life


We turn the pages
We're moving forward and facing whatever comes next in our story


Remember the days you've counted won't be forgotten
The memories of the past won't disappear


I hope you won't leave yourself out
Don't forget your own experiences and growth in your journey forward


When we turn the pages
As time moves forward and we continue living our lives

The turns you had to take still keep you awake
Down come the walls where you once stood
From constant changes you have made
You'll keep inside til you have a say
We change as we get older
Were not to stay
The days we walked are over
Now we just drive away
From everything I know
You're counting days on the back of your hands
You turn the pages til you have no more plans
The only time you had to think of all the things involved
Came when you were least expecting
And now its up to us to replace it
To tell us when ages have made a difference
Cause changes tell just who we are
We change as we get older
Were not to stay
The days we walked are over
Now we just drive away
From everything I know
You're counting days on the back of your hands
You turn the pages til you have no more plans
Now were just miles away
From all that we could be
You're counting days on the back of your hands
We turn the pages
Remember the days you've counted won't be forgotten
I hope you won't leave yourself out
When we turn the pages

@mr.j1629

Nah, try the 80s or 90s the 2000's were alright but '10- up until present date sucks. Can't stand much of it. I was born in the '90s and tbh I miss those days. Back when kids were raised by something other than a device

@bollagurl
