lyrics

Another day (another day)
That takes us further away
From our prime where we used to be
We were the reckless youth who owned these streets

Are things better now?
Have you gone and found yourselves?
Did you plant your seeds?
Watch the love you make start to breathe

One day I'll do the same
I'll become one of the saved
Still ignited by the songs we used to scream
We're wiretapped royalty

Move past a jaded view
That window never served a purpose
What you want, you kept from you
The angst that these songs drew from you
The fragile frames of the older youth that we've become
We're still waiting for the work to make us whole

These aging eyes will always look to all of you
I'll always find your faces in crowded rooms
Here's to the memories that the years, they have become
Embrace your truths
It's so much better if you do

Patience
Just celebrate the time we're given
To rebuild
All that this life has stolen
That grave
Might seem just too appealing
I'd rather wait
To return to the dirt a few more minutes

Of the stars that remain, I'll look to all of you
Any sky that they cast you in could never do
Here's to the nights we spent in Andy's garage
I'm never getting
Over all of you

Over all of you
Over all of you
Over all of you
I love you all
