Anthem For American Teenagers Lyrics


The pieces that are showing lead to the unknowing
Pieces of our lives taking up our time
Is it always how it is? History insists
Everything we need to everything we see
Never lose, never lose
Before we go, we all should know that
Never lose, never lose
Before we go, we all should know that
Carousel's around me and no one here has found me
And I don't think you saw the parts that only are
And I'm leaning on my instincts, guide me to the meaning
Everything you said, filling up my head
Never lose, never lose
Before we go, we all should know that
Never lose, never lose
Before we go, we all should know that
Well, memories only hurt you, they're taking over
Let me on the inside, I'll be your shoulder

Memories only hurt you, they're taking over
Let me on the inside, I'll be your shoulder
Now it's like I always saw it
Let me on the inside, I'll be your shoulder
Memories only hurt you, they're taking over
Let me on the inside, I'll be your shoulder
Memories only hurt you, they're taking over
Never lose, never lose
Before we go, we all should know that
Never lose, never lose
Before we go, we all should know that
Never lose, never lose
Before we go, we all should know that
Never lose, never lose
Before we go, we all should know that

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Not to be confused with the jazz-rock guitarist John McLaughlin (of Mahavishnu Orchestra fame), Jon McLaughlin (born September 27, 1982) is a piano-playing pop/rock singer-songwriter from Anderson, Indiana. His debut album Indiana was released on May 1, 2007, preceded by his first EP Industry, also known as Jon McL, in February, 2007. In 2008, McLaughlin returned with lead single "Beating My Heart", which is available on iTunes. The song is a part of his previous album called OK Now, confirmed on his official site. OK Now was released on October 7th, 2008. He gained fame with his cameo appearance in Disney's Enchanted. Released in early September 2011 in the US, Forever If Ever is Jon's 3rd major label release and his newest album to date. It could previously be downloaded on Amazon's website and the compact disc bought at his personal website. However, seeing as the album will have a re-release with additional tracks and a new name "Promising Promises", the first release has been ultimately shelved. Only the lucky early buyers have a hold of these songs until they are re-released in May 2012. The lead single preceeding the album is "Summer Is Over" featuring the singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles. It was released in late January 2012.

Playing piano since early childhood, Jon McLaughlin grew up in Anderson, Indiana. He didn't want to take piano lessons anymore and was always finding ways to get out of doing so. While attending Highland High School, McLaughlin shattered both wrists in an accident that interrupted his musical expression. Rediscovering "his muse," McLaughlin attended Anderson University to study music. He released an independent album entitled, Up Until Now in 2003. This quickly led to McLaughlin becoming the first artist to sign on with the school's burgeoning, if not local, record label, Orangehaus Records. The self-titled album released in 2004 to local and regional praise. He began touring, traveling throughout the Midwest and working up a grassroots following.
