Almost Arlington – Living In The Moment lyrics

The boy sits down with his head in his hands
It's a rough trip tonight with his pills and and pen
He scribbles down words in hopes to find answers tonight
He writes another lyric down on his page
About a hometown girl only half his age
Get out while you can don't get caught in his games
Cause he'll step on the world just to make himself a name

You're living in the moment chasing after dreams
But I hope along your journey, yeah
You remember one thing
I'll be in the spotlight chasing after mine
And as I'm moving forward you'll take one step aside
Cause it's my time to shine

He then passes out, his pills spilled over
He awakens to see his dad on his shoulder
"You see you've brought me nothing but shame
I thought I taught you that lifes not a game
You only get one chance, you can't waste it away
It's as real as the headstove above the ground that I lay"
He looks in the mirror his eyes filled with tears
Then gone without warning the ghost disappears

You're living in the moment chasing after dreams
But I hope along your journey, yeah
You remember one thing
I'll be in the spotlight chasing after mine
And as I'm moving forward you'll take one step aside
Cause it's my time to shine

He pushes his luck like a four leaf clover and prays to god when will it all be over?
He never thought it would come to this, all the broken dreams and everything that he'd miss
