The Way We Were

I never thought I'd get so lost in my mind

These thoughts I have

They keep me buried

Bury me in a hole

And I feel like we're not the way we used to be

Crushed by the weight of this life

We're destroyed by what creates us

This failure hangs heavy like a crown of thorns

I can't hold on

So we've forgotten to hold on

Stay stronger, burn brighter, live today and fuck the future

To what we left in the dust

Stay stronger, burn brighter, live today and fuck the future

So take me back to the world I left behind

To the way we were

Everything happens for a reason

Well these reasons are all my own

Maybe I've come undone

Or maybe I'm just giving up

I will rise, I will fight

Leave you beaten, broken

Left in the dirt

Think I'll lay here (with the sun)

With the sun on me

These thoughts I have

They keep me buried

Bury me in a hole

And I feel like we're not the way we used to be

Yeah

What do you do when this all feels pointless?

I know (I know)

The sun hides behind a sleeping moon

And I know, I know

My hope will return

So stare into the eyes of your reflection

And live your life

Do you feel like you've missed out on everything?

You're lost and hungry

For a taste of something you can never reach

You'll never reach

I need to feel happiness

I need to feel happiness

I need to feel like the way we were

I need to feel happiness

I need to feel happiness

I need to feel like the way we once were

Memories won't last forever

But I'll hold this in my heart (2x)
