Lyrics
You've got your pride
Wrapped up in a righteous coat of armor
Your certitude reflects the cracks beneath the shine
You foot the bill for a lost opportunity
Woah oh
You failed to seize the day
Woah oh
But who’s to blame
With one door closed, another opens
And tomorrow might be worth the wait
Been down this road
Lost count of all the beefs and quarrels
The brotherhood won out, we lived it like a code
And now your nose is out of joint
Shut out the world to make a point
You foot the bill for a lost opportunity
Woah oh
You failed to seize the day
Woah oh
But who’s to blame
With one door closed, another opens
And tomorrow might be worth the wait
Please help me understand
(I'm not the enemy)
We’ve been through thick and thin
(Think of the history)
We go back all the way
To Dixie-downer summer days
Woah oh
You failed to seize the day
Woah oh
But who’s to blame
With one door closed, another opens
We've left too many words unspoken
It might be bent but it's not broken
And tomorrow might be worth the wait
So where do we go from here?
We’re not getting any younger
This life’s too short and you’re still my brother
Woah Woah
So many words unspoken
Woah Woah
I’m missing my oldest friend
