The Early November – Nothing Lasts Forever lyrics

[Intro]
If this is how the story ends, blackened hearts and bitter friends
Broken bonds and busted ties, we have a love, we have tonight
We don't have to obey the trend, deny our hearts the bitter end
Nothing has to change this time if we have tonight

[Verse 1]
Surrender what you have that they're after
'Cause every day it's not enough
It's a tax to survive the white light
Avoid the right lines
Believe the best view's the one everybody's after
Hold on, it's not enough to believe that you're strong
Hold on, it’s not enough to believe

[Pre-Chorus]
They say nothing lasts forever, it's not giving up
I say nothing last forever, but I'm giving up

[Chorus]
If this is how the story ends, blackened hearts and bitter friends
Broken bonds and busted ties, we have a love, we have tonight
We don't have to obey the trend, deny our hearts the bitter end
Nothing has to change this time if we have tonight

[Verse 2]
Remember it's your past that convicts you
So never give 'em long enough to predict you
Always must grow, try to let go
Never get lost in how everyone sees you
Hold on, it's not enough to believe that you're strong
Hold on, it's not enough to believe

[Chorus]
If this is how the story ends, blackened hearts and bitter friends
Broken bonds and busted ties, we have a love, we have tonight
We don't have to obey the trend, deny our hearts the bitter end
Nothing has to change this time if we have tonight

[Bridge]
We say nothing lasts forever
We say nothing lasts forever
We say nothing lasts forever
We say nothing lasts forever
So nothing lasts forever, well, give it up
Nothing lasts forever

[Outro]
If this is how it ends, then I am better off without it
Oh, I'm better without it
You don't fight, breaking down, we just let it take control
Let it take control until it lets you down so slow
