"Kid I Used To Know" lyrics

"Kid I Used To Know"

Lost in this desert
Feels like a thousand years
Looking for water
Swear there was an ocean here

How do I get back where I came from
When everything has all changed so much
Feeling the pressure now
It's tying my heart down
I'm missing the empty skies of my youth
Never a cloud on the ever bright blues
Just want that peace again
But the chaos is closing in

I know
That I can't ever go
Back to the world when life was only
Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own
I keep trying to find that fearless
Heart that's running wild
With nothing weighing heavy on my soul
Looking for the kid I used to know

Oh-oh

All of these voices
It's hard to tune them out
Yeah-yeah, yeah
I should accept it
It ain't so simple now
No-no, yeah

I wanna say whatever I want
Not even think about falling in love
Chasing the rainbows
And where did the time go

Yeah I know
That I can't ever go
Back to the world when life was only
Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own
I keep trying to find that fearless
Heart that's running wild
With nothing weighing heavy on my soul
Looking for the kid I used to know

Yeah-yeah
The kid I used to know
Yeah, yeah-yeah

Oh-oh, back when I

No I can't ever go
Back to the world when life was only
Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own
I keep trying to find that feeling
Something's running wild
With nothing weighing heavy on my soul
Looking for the kid I used to know
I used to know, yeah
The kid I used to know
