Glory Days 03:06
Singing of days in my hometown Since I was sixteen Never got out But it never bothered me We ran through fields And we slept in valleys But no one called us home It's the way its supposed to be I feel like the past is haunting me Three cheers for glory days For those we've forgotten along the way If I could turn the hands back, I'd see you standing Turn the hands back, I'd see you standing there We pass the streets we used to roam But never far away from home If I could go back one more time Take in the view from above With all the people that we love If I could go back one more time I'm living lies I'm living lies I'm living lies I'm living Three cheers for glory days For those we've forgotten along the way If I could turn the hands back, I'd see you standing Turn the hands back, I'd see you standing there I've got nothing left to lose I've got nothing more to prove I've got nothing left to lose I've got nothing more to prove

Brickwork 03:03
Build it up Make it what you want I can't stress this anymore To get your back against the wall We make the same mistakes A hundred times over When it gets to the point of no return We make the same mistakes A hundred times over When it gets to the point of no return Here it goes again Playing on in my mind For the rest of time I had my doubts and retakes I wouldn't change Fell out from the crowd And I stand alone There's often signs in the brickwork That things will slowly fall apart And it breaks away at the seams Taking all those bad dreams And turning it upside down I'm standing here on the fault line Trying to keep my balance From all the day to day Here it goes again Playing on in my mind For the rest of time I had my doubts and retakes I wouldn't change Fell out from the crowd And I stand alone I think I'm losing my head Under all this water So bring me in Bring me back around I think I'm losing my head Under all this water So pull me in Bring me back around So bring me back around

Old Friends 03:10
Of all these places in my head Some are gone and left unsaid Another turning point between Hope and regret I never thought we'd get this far A hang time that could raise the bar Stolen them and left me Standing alone And everything I said Resonates over the twenty-something years I'll be fine Will someone tell me how it's Supposed to be? I've got a handful of old friends I haven't seen Some with picture-perfect memories that weren't always clean And I still believe I Know I still believe in them all You had me believe I'd wear my heart on my sleeve Or I'd wear it round my neck So I won't get tangled anymore The past was never caring Breaking trust is never free I could try and wrap this up forever Or save it up for one hell of a speech I've got a handful of old friends I haven't seen Some with picture-perfect memories that weren't always clean And I still believe I Know I still believe in them all And everything I said Falls apart over the twenty-something years I was fine Will someone tell me how it's supposed to be? And everything I said Falls apart over the twenty-something years I was fine Will someone tell me how it's supposed to be? I've got a handful of old friends I haven't seen Some with picture-perfect memories that weren't always clean I've got a handful of old friends I haven't seen Some with picture-perfect memories that weren't always clean

I'm not the person I once was I never had the guts To let time take its course And see what could have been It meant we got here faster Another nail gone through the casket Trapping you in a life That you built for yourself It could be a lot worse It could be a lot better I often wonder if you're happy with decisions made I'm kinda hoping that you worry if I feel the same I often wonder if you're happy with decisions made I'm kinda hoping that you worry if I feel the same You killed a part of me Back when you crushed my heart When you said it's better If we drift apart A rotting carcass Terrified of progress Left there in the summer heat I doubt you even noticed You are the saddest song That I've ever known You are the shaking voice On the telephone I often wonder if you're happy with decisions made I'm kinda hoping that you worry if I feel the same I often wonder if you're happy with decisions made I'm kinda hoping that you worry if I feel the same If you ever wonder where you are You'll never have to look that far Another year, another nail In the lid of the life you lead If you ever wonder where you are You'll never have to look that far Another year, another nail In the lid of the life you lead I often wonder if you're happy with decisions made I'm kinda hoping that you worry if I feel the same I often wonder if you're happy with decisions made I'm kinda hoping that you worry if I feel the same x

I'm terrified you'll see me For what I really am Incapable of feeling Anything beyond these hands My heart is cold and weary My eyes are dry and sore But there's so many miles to go In search of something more And I will swallow fire To cauterize these wounds That mend themselves constantly With the phases of the moon You are the car ride home The voice on the telephone The friends you're too scared to meet And I can't stay The sky brings tales of thunder Another place to find I'll never let another Take residence in my mind It's only You You are the car ride home The voice on the telephone The friends you're too scared to meet And I can't stay If only I could be like you In awe of just what life can do So much more left to behold Not terrified of getting old And as our bodies fade away Maybe just one part can stay The part that's left in our minds You cross mine all the time x

Last Forever 03:14
The lights go down And the bottles hit the ground A slight sweat beading down your forehead My ear fills with sound My knuckles are beaten up From the sound of not giving up We're all in this here We are, we are All the things that you want to be We are, we are The little setbacks that you don't need We'll be back again Hanging in the streets at 4am Chugging six packs Making friends In a town where no one knows your name These nights will last forever These nights will last forever We're taking back the night Won't give out before light Holding out for sleep Just until we get back home I'm hoping we keep going for days I'm hoping we keep going for days We are, we are All the things that you want to be We are, we are The little setbacks that you don't need We'll be back again Hanging in the streets at 4am Chugging six packs Making friends In a town where no one knows your name These nights will last forever These nights will last forever

They'll never build us up And make us out of statues Unfold the page Make us stand down and hold the ground What were we even fighting about? When its all said and done We'll still be here We always had the best intentions Even if everything fell short We'd stick together I can call you as one of my own (We always had the best intentions) It never bothered me Living life between the cities With the odd sensation that We're finally home And I made it through the dark I'm not tied up with god But I'm staring through stained glass windows That burn in the past I won't pray for you Or anyone else I just believe in my brothers in arms It never bothered me Living life between the cities With the odd sensation that We're finally home I've been flicking through chapters Because the pages slow me down What's in the past is there for a reason The names of people That my mind drops Spanning the last few years

Last call for alcohol We're blacking out in the streets Of a southern town We would end up sticking around We made it out to the ocean Walked the pier and stared out to sea We call this living And who we all want to be Take a step back Hold your breath If we turn back now There'll be nothing left I can't do this forever But I'm sure as hell gonna try And as long as these bones keep on swinging Like the old American pass time We spent the weekend in the North Held up in a hotel room Snow lay thin on the ground Not much else to do We drank away the night We covered that, we were alright We would stay til sunrise To do this all over again Take a step back Hold your breath If we turn back now There'll be nothing left I can't do this forever But I'm sure as hell gonna try And as long as these bones keep on swinging Like the old American pass time Cos we are gold We are golden Just like we all used to be Take a step back Hold your breath If we turn back now There'll be nothing left I can't do this forever But I'm sure as hell gonna try And as long as these bones keep on swinging Like the old American pass time

I was sitting in the corner Of my old back bedroom thinking I could've gone somewhere But my thoughts were Dismal at best And I had nowhere to turn To pick myself off the ground It takes time to heal We'll get through this every day My mind's not broken yet And I'm staring at the ceiling Things are good enough to change Maybe I could've gone somewhere but I'm happy in my place I wouldn't change what's happened When I get home I'll leave the light on for you Just drive I don't care where we end up next We know it gets better from here We'll take every exit Just to find a new space I don't care where we end up next I walked those empty streets at midnight Planning my escape It took ten years to find the right mistakes But I only got so far Just drive I don't care where we end up next We know it gets better from here We'll take every exit Just to find a new space I don't care where we end up next Heroes let me down But I had ideas that couldn't faze

Closure 00:51

We all want to be Where we were ten years ago years have changed, it's not the same We decide to let it go We broke some hearts and We got hurt too Never hold it back, keep ourselves in check Only life can pull us through I was on your front lawn singing About the moon that starts to rise And I'm hoping for Better days and better nights And we float past windows Of rooms we left behind Finding out the things We didn't want ourselves to find You'll never move Past the points we can't avoid A day from here you'll be reminiscing A long way down the line You've got to keep moving forward It's the only way to keep yourself alive I was on your front lawn singing About the moon that starts to rise And I'm hoping for Better days and better nights And we float past windows Of rooms we left behind Finding out the things We didn't want ourselves to find No you, you're not sorry
