The Mandate Lyrics

As far back as it goes
We watched the time roll by
And say our mother's names with a smile
Remember how she sang you a lullaby?
How'd she ever do such good for you?
Take me back where I used to live
I want to see my old friends and how they've changed
I always said that when I grew up
I would give my friends another chance
To see their lives rearranged
If they wanna see me,
I'm gonna be at the bottom of the hills
I'm gonna be standing with my back against the valley wall
I'm gonna look up at all the cool kids
Standing in their running shoes
I'm gonna walk away from all of that, all of that, all of them all
That's the last thing I can say about the future
(the future, the future, the future, the future...)
I don't really know much about what I'm gonna do
When the days go by (go by, as they always do)
I guess all I (all I really know) really know
About where we're gonna go (where we're gonna go)
Is by looking at what I'm into
And I'm still looking at you
And I'm still looking at you
And I'm always looking for you
I'm still looking at you
Whenever I'm not, whenever I'm not
I'm looking for you
I'm looking for you
