High school often seems to represent that moment in our lives where anything is possible. It is our launching pad to life, so to speak. From that point, we all start to make decisions (or don't make decisions) that ultimately start each of us off down our own unique life path. “High School Can’t Last Forever” is a song that tackles this defining moment in our lives. It begs the notion that those who follow dreams or take chances to go after something often live without regret; whereas, those who are never willing to take a chance and/or simply inadvertently refute their dreams (for whatever reason), often find themselves living with regret and looking back to life's launching pad (high school), wishing they could launch again. I say don't look back. Look ahead and go after those dreams! --RC

(lyrics)
The year I turned 17 was the year that I was told to dream
Where my life would go and what I’d find
But I was dreaming long ago and they told me I had to let it go
It was born to the innocence of a youthful mind

Dreams they help to keep us young and they shouldn’t be stopped by anyone
Who cares what others think you’ve gotta try
Those who look back to find that dreams were only nursery rhymes
Have lost themselves to “once upon a time”

High school can’t last forever
Innocence is just a state of mind
Those who look to days gone by regret the things they did not try
Aged by the bitter hope for a different time

So many years sped on by, my life has changed 1000 times
Everything and nothing is now mine
I’m not as young as I thought I’d be but I keep a certain virginity
Innocence and youth are in the mind

High school can’t last forever
Innocence is just a state of mind
Those who look to days gone by regret the things they did not try
Aged by the bitter hope for a different time

High school can’t last forever
Innocence is just a state of mind
Those who look to yesteryear always seem to shed a tear
Aged by the lost hope for another time
