When I Was Young Lyrics

Verse:

I woke up today

Surrounded by blackness

A small warning sign

Devoured the process

It's always been fine

I get up and ignore this

And it's hard to say

But I feel all of this weightless

But the more that I admit

I feel up and anxious

And the more I go on

The less I can face this

And those rotten things

That live in our shadow

We walk on the line

Of death and the gallows

And hope that we're clear

I bet we can follow

Chorus:

It's the worst damn day (doesn't hurt that much)

Of my life

I made a mess today (doesn't hurt that much)

But I'm alright

Verse:

When I was young

The world it was smaller

The cities were vast

The buildings were taller

I felt really strong

My parents seem stronger

My life has a way

Showers with greatness

Then takes it away

The pieces that made us

Those dangerous things

You'd never imagine

We all get the same

The memories that burn

And those pictures we made

They still form a pattern

They courteously say

Does it not matter?

Chorus:

It's the worst damn day (doesn't hurt that much)

Of my life

I made a mess today (doesn't hurt that much)

But I'm alright
