You say you wanna leave this life
And go somewhere else
Maybe New York, maybe Paris
Somewhere by yourself
If this is what you want
Then it must be what you need
To see your world from another side
A different picture for your eager eyes
So pack up all your things
Get in your car and drive away
Kiss your mother goodbye
Nothing's left to do or say
You won't know where you're going
Or if you're coming home
But if you're gonna break free
You better break free
Before you miss another opportunity
And then you're on your own
Second guessing all your good ideas
You see the world from another side and find
A different picture but the same old eyes
But every scar you earn is a lesson you'll learn
And every mistake made will eventually fade
So close your eyes and throw a dart at the map
And never look back or you'll always look back and say
What's it like in Rome
Sleeping on a beach in San Diego
Staying up all night
Getting drunk in the desert under the starlight
You can never look back or you'll always look back
Never look back or you'll always look back and say
I wish I went to Vegas when I was young
Throw it all on red just for fun
Wake up in the morning and jump out of a plane
Go fishing on a school day, get soaked in the rain
You can never look back or you'll always look back
Never look back or you'll always look back and say
Is the Dr. Pepper better on tap in Waco
You think that bar will believe my fake-o
Buy an old car 'cause you're finally sixteen
Tell a girl you love her just to learn what it means
You can never look back or you'll always look back
Never look back or you'll always look back and say
There's so much to do and so much to see
Places to visit and people to meet
I could name a million things but it would take too long
So what are you gonna do when we finish this song
Because life is a party, it's one big dream
Where everything is fleeting and not as it seems
So do something crazy 'cause you know you'll have fun
Stay outside so long you get burned in the sun
'Cause every memory is a story whether sweet or sad
And every stranger is a friend that you might have had
Every second is a moment that you can't get back
So push to the edge until you get pushed back
You can never look back or you'll always look back
Never look back or you'll always look back and say
You can never look back or you'll always look back
Never look back or you'll always look back
Never look back or you'll always look back
Never look back or you'll always look back and say
