Old Ways Lyrics

It was fun, playing with knives
Until the blade, stuck in the left side of my chest
Surprise
Knocked down again
I turn the page

The story's mine
No more watching the world from my doorstep

Passing me by
(Passing me by)
And i'll just keep changing these colors, colors, colors, colors
I'm not in the same place that I was, I was, I was, I was
But if somebody tells me
I go back to my old ways
I'm gonna say no way

I'm out of the doorway
I'm hearing them all say i'll go back to my old ways
Not going back to my old ways
Not going back to my old ways
(not going back to my old ways)
Now I know, what's good for me
All that I need

And I can't wait to sink my teeth in
And take another bite

And the best part about it
Is i'm the only who can do something about it
I fill the well with some water, it's overflowing
Black into gold
Who knew it'd be so bright without the blindfolds
And I just keep changing these colors, colors, colors, colors
I'm not in the same place that I was, I was, I was, I was
But if somebody tells me

I'll go back to my old ways
I'm gonna say no way
I'm out of the doorway
I'm hearing them all say
I'll go back to my old ways
Not going back to my old ways

Not going back to my old ways
(Not going back to my old ways)
Every scar
The flames burnt them all

I'm not afraid to fall
I'm spiralling
Oh, past the stars
I'm not burning out
I'm not afraid to fall
I'm not afraid anymore
And I just keep changing my colors
I'm not in the same place that I was, I was
Black into gold
Who knew it'd be so bright without the blindfold
And I just keep changing this colors, colors, colors, colors
I'm not in the same place that I was, I was, I was, I was
But if somebody tells me
I'll go back to my old ways
I'm gonna say no way
I'm out of the doorway
I'm hearing them all say
I'll go back to my old ways
Not going back to my old ways
