When I Was Young

I woke up today, surrounded by blackness

The small morning sun devoured the process

It's always been fun when I get a bit nervous

And it's hard to say, but I feel a bit weightless

The more I admit, I feel a bit anxious

The more I go on, the less I can face this

And those rotten things that live in our shadow

We walked on the line of death and the gallows

And hope that we clear a path we can follow

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

Made a mess today (It doesn't hurt that much), but I'm alright

When I was young, the world, it was smaller

The cities were vast, the buildings were taller

I felt really strong, my parents seemed stronger

But life has a way, it showers with greatness

And takes it away, those pieces have made us

Then teaches ya things you'd never imagined

We all get the same, the memories, the burdens

The pictures we made, they still form a pattern

They cautiously say, "Does it all matter?"

It's the worst, damn day (It doesn't hurt that much) of my life

Made a mess today (It doesn't hurt that much), but I'm alright

(It doesn't hurt that much)

It's the worst, damn day (It doesn't hurt that much) of my life

Made a mess today (It doesn't hurt that much), but I'm alright

It's the worst, damn day (It doesn't hurt that much) of my life

Made a mess today (It doesn't hurt that much), but I'm alright

(It doesn't hurt that much)

It's the worst, damn day (It doesn't hurt that much) of my life

I made a mess today (It doesn't hurt that much), but I'm alright
