"Younger Days" lyrics

"Younger Days"

I recall our younger days
When we stayed in that foggy haze
Worried about tomorrow and forgetting yesterday
We'll grow up and settle down
That's what I hope for anyhow
We'll see what the time brings
When we make it to that phase

Brother, it's been too long
Why don't you sit on down?
Lord knows how long we'll go
Before we settle down
The day will come when we're done
And we've had all our rowdy fun
Until then, me and my friend
We'll have another round

Like birds of a feather
We'd run and fly together
Living out our troubled songs
Each and every day
Finding trouble everywhere
Getting caught up in our own snares
Never wound up in handcuffs
As I remember anyways

Why do we always meet like this
Broken and confused?
Building back brick by brick
Till we tear ourselves loose
Burning down these cigarettes
Learned you can't buy happiness
And the devil's waiting for us
And the bottle is his noose

Worn out brains and memories fade
Just like we surely will
At some point, we'll look up
And finally get our fill
Act your age, that's what I'm told
Hell, I'm doing fine for never being this old
We can't replay our younger days
Living like we can't be killed
