We're movin on, we're movin on
We're movin on slowly but surely
We're movin on, we're movin on

We're movin on slowly but surely
We're movin on, we're movin on
We're movin on slowly but surely

We're movin on, we're movin on
We're movin on slowly but surely


Dear Stirling, I know you're still too young to understand
You probably won't even get half of this note in your head
Look, I bet you're really glad that you're out of 5th grade

But trust me you'll soon wish you were there for one more day
Now don't get me wrong, junior high isn't that long
But I still recommend you stay low but keep strong

Oh and have you sent that letter to Katie yet?
You did? Damn, that's one thing you'll regret
You snuck a dumb $$# note into her backpack

Then you'll spend your whole life wondering if she read that
But lets keep on track about when your life will seem black
And in every single way you will be victim of attack

When you first enter the gate it all will seem great
A much bigger campus and new girls to date
But to your surpise you'll see it's all a lie

Cause almost EVERYONE will try and make you cry
Sometime it'll work I'm just giving you a heads up
You'll come so far to the edge you'll wanna give up

Your arms will be a mess there will be a map of scars
Because other people will harm you you'll do yourself harm


We're movin on, we're movin on
We're movin on slowly but surely
We're movin on, we're movin on

We're movin on slowly but surely
We're movin on, we're movin on
We're movin on slowly but surely

We're movin on, we're movin on
We're movin on slowly but surely


One time that will come up that will leave you balling
Is when for project partners your name's the first one calling
I won't forget this it will leave you in disbelief

When your parnter's name was called the whole class will sigh in relief
And the worst part of all is remember Katie?
She stops talking to you and it makes you go crazy

All you seem to do with your time is write songs about death
How for a moment with her you'd give up your last breath
You really lose your mind and to cope you find drugs

But you soon find out that they give no love
But that just makes you do more cause your life seems worthless
At least you pretend to think that you numb yourself on purpose

Stirling I'll hate to have to see you go down that road alone
I truly wish there was a way for me to help you know
That at the very end things will work out okay

In fact you'll start laughing and see sunny days
But for right now just read this letter in the rain
Keep your chin up as you tread through all this pain

There are many obstacles for you to face before you reach heaven
Your own self in time sincerely Route 7


We're movin on, we're movin on
We're movin on slowly but surely
We're movin on, we're movin on

We're movin on slowly but surely
We're movin on, we're movin on
We're movin on slowly but surely

We're movin on, we're movin on
We're movin on slowly but surely


We all have these melodies that help us through the days
We all have our songs to sing that seem to bring on rain
We all have our demons that are against us in every way

We all have different obstacles but we come out all the same
