Brighter Days - Burning Down Alaska

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
