Lyrics[]
I remember those lost in the dark
The bullet or the blade that kept us apart
But I've been moving on, can't be still for long
'Cause it’s the only way
Never ache for a place called home
Can't hold on so tight, gotta let it all go
I got a purpose, it's all that I need
To help me find my way
Every day
Keep your eyes on the road ahead
Don’t be drawn into the light or the shadows in your head
Keep your eyes on the road ahead
And don't ever look back, don't ever look back
'Cause I, I got a feeling in my bones that everything's gonna be fine
Yeah, don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
I fought a war and I learned how to win
But how do you fight when the enemy’s within?
Find your pride, go deeper inside
For the fire that will light your way
The ones you trust can one day betray
You're the hunter and then you're the prey
You pay the cost, it all feels lost
Then you hear a voice inside you say
Keep your eyes on the road ahead
Don’t be drawn into the light or the shadows in your head
Keep your eyes on the road ahead
And don't ever look back, don't ever look back
'Cause I, I got a feeling in my bones that the future is gonna be fine
Yeah, don't ever look back
Don't hold on to past
A lot of road now behind me
Every cut, every bruise, that's all the wrong story
Whatever's up ahead around the next bend
I know I will survive
I've learned how to live with regret
I can't forgive but how could I forget
The things I've learned the strength that I've earned
I have it all by my side
As I rise
Keep your eyes on the road ahead
Don’t be drawn into the light or the shadows in your head
Keep your eyes on the road ahead
And don't ever look back, don't ever look back
'Cause I, I got a feeling in my bones that everything's gonna be fine
Yeah, don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
(I remember those lost in the dark
The bullet or the blade that kept us apart
But I've been moving on, can't be still for long
'Cause it’s the only way) 3x
