As Kids

(album: The Act - 2019)

My imagination was brighter
Above the streets spotted circles
Destiny didn't seem so vague
Control wasn't so important

It's now that the decades wash away
It's now that I accept the blame
A reason was never mentioned
I had nothing but good intentions

Remember the flashes
The sky shining between the branches
It all seemed to be enough
It all seemed to be enough

As kids keeping like the wind
Without a care at all
As kids back when we could hear
The voices through the walls
Remember the flashes
The sky shining between the branches
It all seemed to be enough
It all seemed to be enough

Kicking rocks. Breaking sticks
Starting fires out in the woods
Vices insignificant
We were only young (We were only young)

It's now that the decades wash away
It's now that I accept the blame
A reason was never mentioned
I had nothing but good intentions

Now there's new pain

Introducing a stranger
Grimacing while we break our backs
Can I get a taker
To assume the duties of our age?

Now there's new pain

Remember the flashes
The sky shining between the branches
It all seemed to be enough
It all seemed to be

As kids keeping like the wind
Without a care at all
As kids back when we could hear
The voices through the walls
Remember the flashes
The sky shining between branches
It all seemed to be enough
It all seemed to be enough
