Cities

Never thought my eyes
would see
the day
when the life we built slowly slipped away
these foundations reduced to ruins
nothing left to salvage in this miserable life

that i thought we tried to get away from
but these actions speak louder than the words
that i thought we all used to share, the state of mind
when the air was dry and we didn't fucking care
like a lot of things, i guess thats the past

im sad to say i guess growing up meant giving in
and selling ourselves short in every way
heres to hoping those who lost the path find their way
because i miss who you were

never thought my eyes would see the day
when the life we built slowly slipped away
these foundations reduced to ruins
nothing left to salvage from all of this

i understand you've been locked away
but your first chance at freedom
and you threw it all away

so let the city lights
guide your way
far away from what i saw that night
because its not what i want to remember
about how were
how you are
how theres nothing left to say
theres nothing left to say
