"Past" lyrics

This feeling is haunting
It's with me when I go to sleep
If I'm being honest
It's something that I wanna keep

'Cause it's more than a photo
Of a man only god knows
That left me when I was so young
Sin filled up your lungs

But it don't mean anything
You're already gone
I could scream out your name
And cry all I want
To the memories
'Cause you can't come back
Now we've all got futures
And all that you've got is a past

I sleep with your demons
And wake with a tear in my eye
What was your meaning
And how could you leave me behind

'Cause I'm still gonna hold on
Learn how to go on
And you won't be there by my side
Now it's my war to fight

Cause it don't mean anything
You're already gone
I could scream out your name
And cry all I want
To the memories
'Cause you can't come back
Now we've all got futures
And all that you've got is a past
All that you've got is a past

And I've got the rest of my life
And a lot of long nights
To kill the worst of you
Make the best of hard truths
So I'll try

It don't mean anything
You're already gone
I could scream out your name
And cry all I want
To the memories
'Cause you can't come back
Now we've all got futures
And all that you've got is a past
