Shortcuts

Late nights and long drives home
 Carrying on, all alone
 Meanwhile, this place has changed
 But I just seem to stay the same
 I know it's hard for you
 To relate to what I've been through
 Just know I'm happy
 And I'm doing what I want to do
 I don't change
 No matter what you do
 I'm just sad in my ways
 But I'm not judging you
 I've always been this way
 After all is said
 But I think I'll be okay
 (Okay)
 When you're taking shortcuts
 You're just missing out on everything
 (Missing out on everything)
 I'll take the long way 'round
 Be lost and never found
 You'll get there faster
 But I'm built to last
 Go on
 You'll burn in hell
 (Go on, you'll burn in hell)
 Spent all my life, it seems
 Chasing after all my dreams
 I should have caught them by now
 But they keep outrunning me
 I can't fake this
 It's make or break, if
 I knew all I know now
 I would do it again
 I don't change
 No matter what you do
 I'm just sad in my ways
 But I'm not judging you
 When you're taking shortcuts
 You're just missing out on everything
 (Missing out on everything)
 I'll take the long way 'round
 Be lost and never found
 You'll get there faster
 But I'm built to last
 Go on
 You'll burn in hell
 (Go on, you'll burn in hell)
 And I know there's nothing I'd rather do
 (I'd rather do)
 I'd travel days just to waste time with you
 (Waste time with you)
 And when my body breaks down
 And my money runs out
 At least I'll have something to sing about
 You're taking shortcuts
 (You're taking shortcuts)
 You're taking shortcuts
 (You're taking shortcuts)
 When you're taking shortcuts
 You're just missing out on everything
 I'll take the long way 'round
 Be lost and never found
 You'll get there faster
 But I'm built to last
 Go on, you'll burn in hell
 You're taking shortcuts
 (Go on, you'll burn in hell)
 You're taking shortcuts
 (Go on, you'll burn in hell)
 You're taking shortcuts
 (Go on, you'll burn in hell)
 You're taking shortcuts
 Go on, you'll never learn
