Song Lyrics, Take 2

I'm still thinking about song lyrics. Has anyone else noticed the lyrics to "Move Along" by the All-American Rejects?

It's pretty catchy but I didn't think anything of it until one of the middle school students here at Central Lutheran said something about it.

For privacy, I'll call him "Tyler." He's had a hard year, struggles with behavior issues and fitting in at school.

He told me recently that "Move along" inspires him, reminds him to keep going when things get difficult.

Here's the chorus:

Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know you do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through
Move along
Move along.

Nice to know that it's making a difference for one kid.
