|
We couldn't wait for the days to get longer, |
|
Spend nights sitting up, wasting away |
|
All the shit that we did when we were younger, |
|
Think back and it feels like yesterday |
|
We were losing teeth, |
|
Stayed up again last night, talk some sense to me |
|
So it seems the time has come |
|
To pack your bags, close your eyes and run like I did, |
|
If you do it first I'll follow straight behind you |
|
Cuz growing old is a waste of time, |
|
To say goodbye is a waste of breath, |
|
We'll stick it out til the bitter end |
|
I remember every night that we spent on the edge, |
|
The cold warmth and the bitter taste that it left |
|
Young, dumb, and carefree and reckless, |
|
But there's some method to the madness |
|
Passed out in the living room, |
|
Moved on but I'll see you soon, |
|
Bored now you're absent, |
|
Back home there's still nothing to do |
|
Though we complained about it |
|
All was such a worthwhile waste of my time, |
|
Every day and each night a memory, |
|
Take care and please don't forget me |
|
Don't give a fuck what they have to say, |
|
Cuz we'll just do it anyway, |
|
And if I break a bone or it fries my brain, |
|
We took a risk and laughed at our mistakes. |
|
Give a fuck if we don't fit in! |
|
We don't need them, |
|
They don't know a thing about us, |
|
All the times we shared |
|
The world at our feet and in the wind in our hair, |
|
But some things must change, |
|
And as much as I hate it, |
|
It kills me to say our goodbyes as we turn the page and |
|
Move onto the next chapter, |
|
And hope it won't hold disaster |
|
Now the world's so big it seems, |
|
But the blank white walls won't let me breathe |
|
And if the big wide world caved in tonight, I'd see you on |
|
The other side |
