Riverside Lyrics

With the Punches

I dumped out a box of old
family photographs
spread them out across my bed
Grandpa Lou
you wouldn'€™t believe just how
much this place has changed

and I hate to say
that this city lost it'€™s shine
and the sense of style
and class it had back then
overrun with greed
spending the money they don'€™t have
to buy the things they'€™ll die before they need

I'€™m only sure I need a change of scenery

Every week'€™s the same
I can'€™t stand to waste another day
complaining but making no real attempt to be different
when I finally leave this town
I'€™ll take the interstate right down the coast
and maybe I'€™ll head west
to figure out the next spot to call my home

Never forget
the way the brightest stars
lit up the balcony of my apartment
on my last night
I looked up at that sky
and realized the change had been in me

somewhere along the way
started making sense of all the things I'€™ve heard
it'€™s not about where your time is spent
it'€™s what you choose to do with it
