[Verse 1]
How many years have passed me by?
Since I've stopped to take a look at all the changes in my life
So many friends have come and gone
But all those summer nights still burn inside my lungs
I hope you will not forget this either
Forever
[Chorus]
And I bet I'm not the only one who thinks
I'm stuck in the past with all the friends I am losing
I regret not holding onto more closely
The past is the past, and I'm letting it kill me
[Verse 2]
If I just had one wish I'll tell you what it'd be
I'd bring back all the bands inside the dome
And one last time we'd have a fucking show
Life is what you make it, what you make it and I believe in this
What happened to the familiar faces that I've come to miss
[Chorus]
And I bet I'm not the only one who thinks
I'm stuck in the past with all the friends I am losing
I regret not holding onto more closely
The past is the past, and I'm letting it kill me
[Bridge]
This sinking ship can't hold much more
How much longer?
How much longer?
Until these lights are dead and gone
I will scatter the ashes of what's left of this place that I call home
And I will scatter the ashes of what's left of this life this place that I call home
And to fight this fatal attraction
Just to sit inside and hang my head too low
[Breakdown]
Living in the shadows of the scars
The past defines just who we are
[Outro]
And I bet I'm not the only one who thinks
I'm stuck in the past with all the friends I am losing
I regret not holding onto more closely
The past is the past and I'm letting it kill me
The past lives
