Ancient History

Growing up

All we knew was bad

With a handful friends

What a life we had

Now that there's only

Three of us left

I laugh to my self

Over the damage we left

16 years old

My first broken nose

Listening to Blitz in a convertible

With Some blood on my clothes

I may never feel

That same breeze again

First time in my life

I knew I had friends

We were kids

Always did as we please

Welcoming the sword

Living life with no guarantees

Ancient history

Not many of us left

I swallow hard

When I feel that void in my chest

Although some

Have floated to sea

I promise to be here

If they want to find out about me

It all ancient history

But man am I glad you were with me

Wars won

With a hammer and pipe

And a couple ski masks

When the timing is just right

Remember that bat that almost hit me?

We were joking about what our lives will be like when we're 50!

Seems so distant

Those stories I hear

Of teenage scamps

Living life with no fear

All the ghosts still haunt me

I guess that's my penance

For living life like a menace

We were kids

Always did as we please

Welcoming the sword

Living life with no guarantees

Ancient history

Not many of us left

I swallow hard

When I feel that void in my chest

Although some of us

have floated to see

I promise to be here

If they want to find out about me

It all ancient history

But man am I glad you were with me

(MAX)

We were kids

Always did as we please

Welcoming the sword

Living life with no guarantees

Ancient history

Not many of us left

I swallow hard

When I feel that void in my chest

Although some of us

have floated to see

I promise to be here

If they want to find out about me

It all ancient history

But man am I glad you were with me
