Gone Are The Days lyrics

You were my closest friend

My strength when days go mad

But I spent my time in shallow sheets

I should've seen your hand

I didn't see the signs

I was blinded by the lights

And lost where I belong

I thought that we'd grow old

Give kids our bad advice

Now I'm alone

You went and left me

with these sleepless nights

You took my warmth and soul,

left me with doubt and cold

Is this where I belong?

Gone are the days of young

Better run for cover

There's no one here

to save you from yourself

When you discover it's hard

You don't know how to carry on…

Gone are the days of young

Better run for cover

When everything you love

is lying six feet under, I know

You don't know how, but you carry on

These days are longer now

My nights spent wondering why

And I get mad inside

Did you fight back or even try?

You didn't see the signs

Were blinded by the lights

You lost where you came from

We're not so different, no

We grew up wanting more

But I found it easy 'cause

I left my morals at the door

You took an honest turn

I watched you fall apart

You lost before you started

Gone are the days of young

Better run for cover

There's no one here

to save you from yourself

When you'll discover it's hard

You don't know how to carry on

Gone are the days of young

Better run for cover

When everything you love

is lying six feet under, I know

You don't know how, but you carry on (on)

Gone are the days of young

Better run for cover

There's no one here

to save you from yourself

When you'll discover it's hard

You don't know how to carry on
