Rewrite the ending

You can pretend that I'm not even here
If it will keep your conscience clear
I've heard this story before
This is where you walk out the front door
This is starting to read
Like a black and white rerun on tv
You've set your friends on fire
And let accomplishments slip under the wire

Just open your eyes and see
That no one's even listening
You traded up your dreams
For a life of lies and wicked things
Ooh-whoah
Change is coming
Ooh-whoah
We'll rewrite the ending
I won't throw it away
That's the difference between you and me

This is where I let you get to me
Yeah, this is where I let you crawl under my skin
While I'm fighting the battles that you could never win
And as the bridges burn
I will hold my breath and take my turn
I'm not running away
I'm not running away
I'm not running away from yesterday

Just open your eyes and see
That no one's even listening
You traded up your dreams
For a life of lies and wicked things
Ooh-whoah
Change is coming
Ooh-whoah
We'll rewrite the ending
I won't throw it away
That's the difference between you and me
