the better days before me

Singer: stick to your guns

i'm a firm believer in letting the past be the past

but sometimes you have to go back

you have to go back

to remind ourselves of the things we lost

the weight we shed

the lessons learned and how much they cost

as for me i realize this life is not guaranteed

and that we are not promised the things that we need

but this life always has a way to force you to face yourself and i've avoided it for way too long

as for me i realize this life is not guaranteed

and that we are not promised the things that we need

wasted days are suicide

if you're not satisfied

you have no one to blame but yourself

there was a time when i did things just to do them

when i let my heart lead me to the lions

there was a time when i saw the value in uncertainty

and there was no difference between you and me

there was a time when everything didn't seem so out of place

there was a time when we said fuck them all and just walked their fucking race

there was a time when we just laughed at everything and everyone

there was a time

where is the time?

i'm going back to find the better days before me

there was a time

now is the time and i'm fucking going back

i'm going back to find the better days before me
