Some Things Can't Change

Bought a one way ticket to the west coast near the mountain tops
He's gonna change his life around
He's gotta get away from the every day life that he's always lived

Grew up never knowing right from wrong
It's hard to change something When it's been this way for so long
And then he told me with a tear in his eye
"I don't think I'll ever change my life
Can't just pack my bags and run away" (Away)
We all know that some things, some things just can't change

I know when you're gone some things will have to change
I know when you're gone some things will have to change

Now he's back, it's one year later
Nothing seemed to change
Except he shaved his head and anger now fills his veins
He's mad at the world, he's mad at everyone
He's ashamed of the man he has become

And then he told me with a tear in his eye
"I don't think I'll ever change my life
Can't just pack my bags and run away" (Run away)
We all know that some things, some things just can't change

I know when you're gone some things will have to change
I know when you're gone some things will have to change

Where will he be years from now?
Oh, he's still around
