Old Ways lyrics

[Verse 1]

It was fun playin' with knives

Until a blade

Stuck in the left side of my chest

Surprise

And I'm down again, I turn the page

The story's mine

No more watchin' the world from my doorstep

Passin' me by

[Pre-Chorus]

And I just keep changin'

These colors, colors, colors, colors

I'm not in the same place

That I was, I was, I was, I was

[Chorus]

But if somebody tells me

I'll go back to my old ways

I'm gonna say no way

I'm out of the doorway

I'm hearin' them all say

I'll go back to my old ways

Not goin' back to my old ways

[Post-Chorus]

Not goin' back to my old ways

(Not goin' back to my old ways)

[Verse 2]

Now I know what's good for me

All that I need

And I can't wait to sink my teeth in

And take another bite

And the best part about it

Is I'm the only who can do somethin' about it

I fill the well with some water , it's overflowin'

Black into gold

Who knew it'd be so bright without the blindfolds

[Pre-Chorus]

And I just keep changin'

These colors, colors, colors, colors

I'm not in the same place

That I was, I was, I was, I was

[Chorus]

But if somebody tells me

I'll go back to my old ways

I'm gonna say no way

I'm out of the doorway

I'm hearin' them all say

I'll go back to my old ways

Not goin' back to my old ways

[Post-Chorus]

Not goin' back to my old ways

(Not goin' back to my old ways)

[Bridge]

Every scar

The flames burn the mark

I'm not afraid to fall

I'm spiraling

I'm spiraling

I pass the stars

I'm not burning out

I'm not afraid to fall

I'm not afraid anymore

[Pre-Chorus]

And I just keep changin' my colors

These colors, colors, colors, colors

I'm not in the same place that I was, I was

[Bridge]

And the best part about it

Is I'm the only who can do somethin' about it

I fill the well with some water , it's overflowin'

Black into gold

Who knew it'd be so bright without the blindfolds

[Pre-Chorus]

And I just keep changin'

These colors, colors, colors, colors

I'm not in the same place

That I was, I was, I was, I was

[Chorus]

But if somebody tells me

I'll go back to my old ways

I'm gonna say no way

I'm out of the doorway

I'm hearin' them all say

I'll go back to my old ways

Not goin' back to my old ways
