Can’t Go Back Lyrics by The Potato Pirates

Raised Better Than This

2014

[Intro: Everyone]
Fuck you!
[Verse 1: Scott]
Wipe that smile off your head
Life's harder than that
We'll breathe easier when we're dead
We're livin' like that
So pour a little out
This one's for the past
These good times may never come again
So raise your glass
[Verse 2: Scott]
Feeling depressed
Fuck nostalgia
I envy the dogs not burdened to think
I'm wasting my time
Wasting my life
Trying to look back
When the grass was green
The future no longer seems so bright
But it's the same damn future
All that changed is my eyes
So I look back
Fuck the past
It's time to move forward
'Cause I'll never get it back
[Chorus: Scott]
Can't go back
Past is passed
You're holding on to something
That you'll never get again
Can't go back
Past is passed
Don't throw away potential
Just to reminisce
[Verse 3: Scott]
Feeling depressed
Fuck nostalgia
I envy the dogs not burdened to think
I'm wasting my time
Wasting my life
Trying to look back
When the grass was green
The future no longer seems so bright
But it's the same damn future
All that changed is my eyes
So I look back
Fuck the past
It's time to move forward
'Cause I'll never get it back
[Chorus: Scott]
Can't go back
Past is passed
You're holding on to something
That you'll never get again
Can't go back
Past is passed
Don't throw away potential
Just to reminisce
[Everyone]
Fuck you!
[Verse 4: Scott]
Wipe that smile off your head
Life's harder than that
We'll breathe easier when we're dead
We're livin' like that
So pour a little out
This one's for the past
These good times may never come again
So raise your glass
Raise your fucking glass!
