The houses have been condemned on Memory Lane<br />I’m tired of this struggle that leaves everything the same<br />I’ve tried so hard to make it work<br />that I’m dying inside<br />Well, you can take my past<br />But you can’t have my tomorrow<br /><br />Promises that remain promises are useless and they’re cheap<br />I wish I could put a price on words so I could make them keep<br />I put so much faith in you<br />I lost all my faith in me<br />Well, you can take my past<br />But you can’t have my tomorrow<br /><br />I’m giving up on giving up<br />I can’t leave it all to prayer<br />‘Cause the first step in getting better<br />is knowing what’s not there<br />You said you’d make it better<br />and that just makes it worse<br />Well, you can take my past<br />But you can’t have my tomorrow<br /><br />Yes, I want my life to last<br />So you can’t have my tomorrow<br />No, you can’t have my tomorrow
