Don’t Tell Me I Can’t Change Lyrics

Painted light through a window
The subtle signs that we all know
Those days, they’ve come and passed
But I swear, this place is home
I took a chance at this hard life
The late nights and the long drives
Oh, I wanna do it all again
Why can’t we just...

Seem brave, but stay the same
And be proud of this life we made
I’m growing older by the minute, but my heart’s still in it
Just understand that I’m not going down easy
These walls that I’m breaking
Will serve to remind us of this legacy so strange
Don’t tell me I can’t changе

Memories have mе tongue-tied
As I was on the day you died
But I’ll keep moving forward, the same as I ever had
And when you’ve lost your composure
And the words just don’t sound the same
Don’t be afraid to start over
Don’t be afraid to just...

Seem brave, but stay the same
And be proud of this life we made
I’m growing older by the minute, but my heart’s still in it
Just understand that I’m not going down easy
These walls that I’m breaking
Will serve to remind us of this legacy so strange
Don’t tell me I can’t change
I’m a man of bad habits and good luck that won’t last
Telling myself I’m not a product of my past
Offer me a semblance of clarity
And a sign that this won’t be the end for me

Seem brave, but stay the same
And be proud of this life we made
I’m growing older by the minute, but my heart’s still in it
Just understand that I’m not going down easy
These walls that I’m breaking
Will serve to remind us of this legacy so strange
Don’t tell me I can’t change

I’m a man of bad habits and good luck that won’t last
Telling myself I’m not a product of my past
Offer me a semblance of clarity
And a sign that this won’t be the end for me
