When I Was Young Lyrics


Blink 182 When I Was Young


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
