Darkest Days Lyrics - Good Riddance

Pulling down toxins from the atmosphere 

Making all of my decisions based on fear 

I never even cared about what I could be 

I declared a private war on authority 

I got what you need because I'm a bad seed 

I'm running on adrenaline and living on greed 

I'm tired of being, I'm sick of my scene 

I'm looking for the end or a place where I can finally come clean 

Because I remember one time something to live for 

Now so long ago 

Faces always are changing 

Lies and disguise for the things we know 

One time something to live for 

Somehow I lost my way 

Those times I pissed away now 

Echo in my darkest days 

Walking everyday thinking that I know best 

Wearing my contempt like a bullet-proof vest 

On my way I'm going to make it all mine 

Rolling in the gutter just to kill some time 

But I was dead wrong and now it's all gone 

I won't become the fool that I've abused for so long 

The line's played out and I've got to get back 

Chase away the negative and throw away the useless track 

Because I remember one time something to live for 

Now so long ago 

Faces always are changing 

Lies and disguise for the things we know 

One time something to live for 

Somehow I lost my way 

Those times I pissed away now 

Echo in my darkest days 

I've seen things I hope I never see again 

(There's another place to fall) 

I don't want to have to bury any more friends 

(There's another friend to call) 

Living on the edge of a sign of our times 

(There's a world beyond yourself) 

Dying in the wreckage we create with our crimes 

(There are those who tried to help) 

Because I remeber one time something to live for 

Now so long ago 

Faces always are changing 

Lies and disguise for the things we know 

One time something to live for 

Somehow I lost my way 

Those times I pissed away now 

Echo in my darkest days
