Danno Simpson - Days Gone By

{Verse 1}
I never cared much for birthdays
I never cared much for growing old
Time flashes by at the blink of an eye
And nothing's the same as before
Is it there in the mirror
The last of a ghost, a fading memory
Creeping up through the depths of a past and left dead
A reminder of my used to be's

{Chorus}
There's no going back or slowing down
Nobody back at home to try and make proud
All the youth you wasted chasing some cheap high
Now you can sit and mourn a distant life
But don't we all just fade like a break of light
Is it best lеft for the burn or the days gone by
Thе days gone by
The days gone by
Oh, the days gone by

{Verse 2}
You can count up your gray hairs
Count up the times that you let her down
You can thumb through the years 'til it brings you to tears
And you feel like you're starting to drown
What's the point in the end?
You'd still be around if we really were friends
To live a good life through the struggle and strife
Is the best course for your revenge

{Chorus}
There's no going back or slowing down
Nobody back at home to try and make proud
All the youth you wasted chasing your cheap high
Now you can sit and mourn a distant life
But don't we all just fade like a break of light
Is it best left for the burn or the days gone by
The days gone by
The days gone by

{Bridge}
Right before my eyes
Right before my eyes
The days gone by
The days gone by
Have they passed me by
Have they passed me by
Is it there in the mirror
Been a while since I've seen your face
Did you slow your roll when you came to know
What it looks like to win this race

{Chorus}
There's no going back or slowing down
Nobody back at home to try and make proud
All the youth you wasted chasing your cheap high
Now you can sit and mourn a distant life
But don't we all just fade like a break of light
Is it best left for the burn or the days gone by
The days gone by
The days gone by
The days gone by
