Lyrics:

Now I've found a little time
To take a look back
From the caboose
And follow the tracks of my life
They're tangled about lying true
And I know it's just me
My point of view
But those are the important two

Yeah, I don't need
To check with the crowd
Wouldn't it be nice to be proud?

The door was open
And into the night
I jumped through
And turned on the light
I started to see
Though it wasn't that bright
I saw island sky
But it wasn't all blue
My aces weren't right
But I didn't wanna lose

So I put up a fight
And screamed out loud
Wouldn't it be nice to be proud?
(Ah)

And when it all is clear
The time to repair
Disappears
Takin' with it chances left untried


See my friends
Huddled together
Tryna stay warm
In nasty weather
We'd beat the odds
Whenever they'd call
And all the jokes
That I played on friends
Never did get
Me in the end

I guess I was
Given more than allowed
Wouldn't it be nice to be proud?
(Ah)

And when it all is clear
The time to repair
Disappears
Takin' with it chances left untried
