Was It Even Real?

Memories are only echoes
Of a time I didn't have to gain
If the story's all I have now
Then why's it even real?

The moments we lit up
In the sky which golden
Swimming pools with our shoes on
Jumping fences just for fun
And now I wonder
What happened to endless summers
Wouldn't let the ice cream melt
I'm forgetting how that felt

The future's coming at me fast
It feels way closer than the past

Looking at myself in photos
Part of me feels like I wasn't there
If the story's all I have now
Then was it even real
Memories are only echoes
Of a time I didn't have to gain
If the story's all I have now
Then was it even real?

We're older
And suddenly the party's over
Is it only half past nine
Already calling it a night

And now it's scary
Watching all my friends get buried
Haven't seen them in a year
How the hell did we get here?

The future's coming at me fast
Young forever never lasts

Looking at myself in photos
Part of me feels like I wasn't there
If the story's all I have now
Then was it even real
Memories are only echoes
Of a time I didn't have to gain
If the story's all I have now
Then was it even real?

I'm starting to doubt
I'm starting to doubt it
If it's only me
When you'll talk about
When you'll talk about it
Then why's it even real?

I'm starting to doubt
I'm starting to doubt it
If it's only me
When you'll talk about
When you'll talk about it

Looking at myself in photos
Part of me feels like I wasn't there
If the story's all I have now
Then was it even real
Memories are only echoes
Of a time I didn't have to gain
If the story's all I have now
Then was it even real?
