[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]

I'm supposed to be runnin', I'm just catchin' my breath

Sayin' congratulations, terrified of what's next

Everything is exploded, twenty hours no sleep

Three o'clock in the mornin', lyin' there in the street

[Pre-Chorus: Emily Armstrong & Mike Shinoda]

Breaking our backs for a pile of sand

Just to have it all fallin' out of our hands

Maybe it all gets lost in the end, but

[Chorus: Emily Armstrong & Mike Shinoda]

I'll remember you

No matter where our ways may take us to

And even when the memories slip away

Time will test you, I won't let you fade

[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]

This is supposed to feel different, why do I feel the samе?

Tryin' to get with the rhythm, I'm all over thе place

And the faces in my head say that what was next might just be the last

We don't want to admit that we are never going back

Revisitin' the distance from the present to the past

And don't know how we went from where we were to where we're at

[Pre-Chorus: Emily Armstrong & Mike Shinoda]

Breaking our backs for a pile of sand

Just to have it all fallin' out of our hands

Maybe it all gets lost in the end, but

[Chorus: Emily Armstrong & Mike Shinoda]

I'll remember you

No matter where our ways may take us to

And even when the memories slip away

Breaking our backs for a pile of sand

Just to have it all fallin' out of our hands

Maybe it all gets lost in the end

[Bridge: Mike Shinoda, Emily Armstrong, Both]

I know I'm the one that you wanna forget, but

I'll remember you

No matter where our ways may take us to

And even when the memories slip away

Time will test you

Time will test you

Time will test you

I won't let you fade

[Outro: Mike Shinoda & Emily Armstrong, Both]

I won't let you fade

I won't let you fade

What was next might just be the last

We don't want to admit that we ain't never going back (I won't let you fade)

Revisitin' the distance from the present to the past

And don't know how we got from where we were to where we're at (I won't let you—)
