Sat on the stack, held it all back,
Let it all go to prevent a crack,
And it seems I miss you dearly.
Youth on my side, so I'll find the time,
I'll grow up someday but for now I'm fine,
I just wish that you were near me.
Glory days oh glory days behind me, set deep in tainted skin.
I'm well aware so don't remind me, how I can't seem to win.
Accept defeat, curse the cracks of empty streets.
But I don't wanna tell the same sad story,
Even if I did, you'd just ignore me.
I wear myself out trying to find an ending,
But I'll work this out when I stop pretending
that I could never let this go,
There's more to life than chasing ghosts,
But then hindsight's 20/20.
My old man once said "Take heed, don't wait until you're just like me,
To look back over history with nothing but regret".
So all my friends sang f** forever,
Live today and die together.
We don't wanna tell the same sad story,
Heard it all before and that's f**ing boring.
I wear myself out trying to find an ending,
But I'll work this out when I stop pretending
that I could never let this go,
There's more to life than chasing ghosts,
But then hindsight's 20/20.
