Forever Forward

[Verse 1]
Our stories like tattoos
Like a scar on our heart, it's still a part of you
For so long, I was ashamed of mine, mm
But I don't have to move on
I write it down in the words of a new song
Like silver or gold heated by a fire
Yeah, I'm better and better with time

[Chorus]
For every fallin' star, for every broken heart
For every minute that I'm in it and I fall apart
Breathe in the next breath, don't listen to regret
My story's not finished and I'm not done yet
I can build up a wall and try to shut it out
It's just a matter of time before it falls down
All out of order, it's just brick and mortar
I gotta keep movin' forever forward

[Verse 2]
The journey down life's road
So many curves and swerves and broken potholes
But there's beauty in takin' the long way
Yeah, I've seen it enough to say

[Chorus]
For every fallin' star, for every broken heart
For every minute that I'm in it and I fall apart
Breathe in the next breath, don't listen to regret
My story's not finished and I'm not done yet
I can build up a wall and try to shut it out
It's just a matter of time before it falls down
All out of order, it's just brick and mortar
I gotta keep movin' forever forward

[Bridge]
No, the past don't define me, it refines me
The smiles and the tears put the life in the years
And now I finally see

[Chorus]
For every fallin' star, for every broken heart
For every minute that you're in it and it falls apart
Breathe in the next breath, don't listen to regret
Your story's not finished and you're not done yet
I can build up a wall and try to shut it out
It's just a matter of time before it falls down
All out of order, it's just brick and mortar
I gotta keep movin' forever forward

[Outro]
So keep on movin' forever forward, mm
Forever forward
