"Brighter Days" lyrics

Burning Down Alaska Lyrics

"Brighter Days"

How could I forget
The dreams we had
And the promises
We made to ourselves

Memories of brighter days
Remembrance of another way
Forgotten for ages, lost in time
No cross to mark the place they lie

Take it back
Take it back
To how it used to be

Take it back
Take it back
The life that was always yours
And never give it away

The years go by
And we still wonder if there's
More to this
More to this

Now we wave goodbye
And there was always something
More to this
More to this

They say that time runs like sand
And so does your life
Tossing and turning for the sake of nothing
Struggling to survive
How can we live on if it's always the same
When we are starved, fucked and caught in routine
Caught in routine

The colours fade away
Leaving nothing but the bitter taste of regret
Time's up, no chance to reset
Life ends and we all pay the debt

Take it back
Take it back
To how it used to be

Take it back
Take it back
The life that was always yours
And never give it away

The years go by
And we still wonder if there's
More to this
More to this

Now we wave goodbye
And there was always something
More to this
More to this
