lyrics

Verse 1:

Take me back to when we were young
You'd pick fights but we'd make up
I'd still try It's getting harder all the time
Oh woah, oh woah
Saw the world in a different way
Drove across about a million states
I don't know why it's getting harder all the time
Oh woah, oh woah

Pre:

Moving forward
Moving on

Chorus:

Feels like I'm up against the world
When there's no one by my side
I'll face this on my own, on my on my own
Oh oh oh ohhhhhh
It’s like I'm up against the world
Going somewhere undefined
I'll face this on my own, on my on my own
Oh oh oh ohhhhhh

Verse 2:

Now I'm here finding who I am
Fulfilling dreams and making plans
I'll touch the sky
but I know these things take time
Oh woah

Pre:

Moving forward
Moving on

Chorus:

Feels like I'm up against the world
When there's no one by my side
I'll face this on my own, on my on my own
Oh oh oh ohhhhhh
It’s like I'm up against the world
Going somewhere undefined
I'll face this on my own, on my on my own
Oh oh oh ohhhhhh

Bridge:

I don't know where I'm going
But I'll go it alone
I'm terrified but alive and I know
That I'm up against the world
When there's no one by my side
I'll face this on my own, on my on my own
Oh oh oh ohhhhhh

Chorus:

Feels like I'm up against the world
Going somewhere undefined
I'll face this on my own, on my on my own
Oh oh oh ohhhhhh
