Those Were The Days

Lookin' for a spot to place my beer
All this trash pilin’ up in the way
Light a cigarette, grab a breath of air
It's a dark beautiful fantasy
I remember drinkin' warm beer for breakfast
Hard to call it: Wake and bake, when you ain’t slept yet
Swear I'd vomit if I smell a shot of jameson
Until I rage again

Tell me why I miss when my whole world was upside down (down)
Had nothing but I'd give everything to go back now, ooh

Those were the days
I was fightin' demons with my friends, I can see them in my head
Those were the days
I found beauty in the sufferin', had to die so I could live
Had dreams of bein' ballin'
I was empty like my wallet
Those were the days
I was fightin' demons with my friends, wish I could do it all again

At work, jaw clenched with dry mouth (dry mouth)
After I’ll drink till I pass out (pass out)
My best friend's depressed, sleepin’ on the couch
Got too high, the xannies helpin' him come down
Pull up to the pool hall, with my own 8-ball
Eyes wide, keys out in a bathroom stall
Now I'm up smilin' like I'm ten feet tall
Twenty minutes until I fall

Tell me why I miss when my whole world was upside down (world was upside down)
Had nothing but I'd give everything to go back now, ooh

Those were the days
I was fightin' demons with my friends, I can see them in my head
Those were the days
I found beauty in the sufferin', had to die so I could live
Had dreams of bein' ballin'
I was empty like my wallet
Those were the days
I was fightin' demons with my friends, wish I could do it all again
(Wish I could do it all again)
Was fightin' demons with my friends, wish I could do it all again (wish I could do it all again)
Was fightin' demons with my friends, wish I could do it all again
