This Is Now

[Verse]
There was a time not long ago
Sparkle and magic
Supershine and glow
Blurring the lines
Letting the hard things go
Letting the hard things go

Everyone high on confidence
Living like children in heartbreaking innocence
Like maybe the world wouldn't ask for penitence
Letting the darkness go
Letting the darkness go

[Chorus]
But that was then, and this is now
River of changes flowing on somehow
Back at ground zero
You take your bow
That was then, and this is now
This is now, oh

[Verse]
Maybe you wanna dream
You wanna hide
Push it all down, down, down
Go dark inside
Memories and movies filling up your eyes
Filling up your eyes, and whispering lies

[Chorus]
But that was then, and this is now
Life rearranges what you know somehow
Back at ground zero
You take your bow
That was then, and this is now
This is now, oh

That was then, this is now
Life rearranges what you know somehow
Back at ground zero
Take your bow
That was then, and this is now
