The Way We Were Lyrics - Silent Screams

I never thought I'd get so lost in my mind 

These thoughts I have 

They keep me buried 

Bury me in a hole 

And I feel like we're not the way we used to be 

Crushed by the weight of this life 

We're destroyed by what creates us 

This failure hangs heavy like a crown of thorns 

I can't hold on 

So we've forgotten to hold on 

Stay stronger, burn brighter, live today and fuck the future 

To what we left in the dust 

Stay stronger, burn brighter, live today and fuck the future 

So take me back to the world I left behind 

To the way we were 

Everything happens for a reason 

Well these reasons are all my own 

Maybe I've come undone 

Or maybe I'm just giving up 

I will rise, I will fight 

Leave you beaten, broken 

Left in the dirt 

Think I'll lay here (with the sun) 

With the sun on me 

These thoughts I have 

They keep me buried 

Bury me in a hole 

And I feel like we're not the way we used to be 

Yeah 

What do you do when this all feels pointless? 

I know (I know) 

The sun hides behind a sleeping moon 

And I know, I know 

My hope will return 

So stare into the eyes of your reflection 

And live your life 

Do you feel like you've missed out on everything? 

You're lost and hungry 

For a taste of something you can never reach 

You'll never reach 

I need to feel happiness 

I need to feel happiness 

I need to feel like the way we were 

I need to feel happiness 

I need to feel happiness 

I need to feel like the way we once were 

Memories won't last forever 

But I'll hold this in my heart 

Memories won't last forever 

But I'll hold this in my heart
