You say you didn't like the moments when you were scared to death But your favorite memories are made of 'em Now which ones do you erase and which ones do you keep? You say you didn't like the moments when you felt troubled But they made you write your best songs Now which ones do you erase and which ones do you keep? You say you didn't like the moments when you lost yourself But it's how you found the roads that led you here Now which ones do you take and which ones do you leave? You say you didn't ask for the moments when you were broke How else would you learn what freedom is worth? It taught you to receive and now it's teaching you to give You say you didn't like to be humiliated No joke is ever worth the harm it does Well now you know Now, you know See how the gears all fit together? Then why are my feet still so cold? They say those fears don't live forever Then why does my heart feel so old?
