Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We've run out of reason
Losing sight of what it's supposed to be
A part time believer, till truth
We've somehow conceded
This sense of self-evasive solitude
It means way too much to me
[Chorus]
And, I hope you know how lucky you are
Oh, I remember sitting back on my balcony
I was a-listening to the Rolling Stones
See I was waiting for my dad to come home from work
So I could show him all the chords that I'd learned
See I was under the impression I was gonna lead
Some kind of simple understated life
But now I'm living in the shadows of a memory
And I hope so
Man I hope so, oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
It's been way too long
It seems that I can't celebrate my meaning
For I am too young, too mourn
If it won't release
It pulls and it pushes me
'Til I wither, 'til I wither, 'til I wither
[Chorus]
And I hope you know how lucky you are
Oh, I remember sitting back on my balcony
I was a-listening to the Rolling Stones
See, I was waiting for my dad to come home from work
So I could show him all the chords that I'd learned
See, I was under the impression I was gonna lead
Some kind of simple understated life
But now I'm living in the shadows of a memory
And I hope so
Man I hope so, oh-oh-oh
[Verse 3]
And oh, you dare
You run like a lion
To defend your senses
And, oh, it seems it cuts to the core
It's not the same, my friend, no more
Oh no, oh
[Outro]
Whoa, oh oh oh-oh oh-oh oh, oh-oh oh
Whoa, oh oh oh-oh oh
Whoa, oh oh oh-oh oh-oh oh, oh-oh oh
Whoa, oh oh oh-oh oh
See, I was waiting for my dad to come home from work...
