The Decayed - The Old & The Dead
When I was younger I was angry & bottled upI didn't care about the world, only getting drunk
I took what I wanted and did as I pleased
Played in bands and got hassled by police
What the hell have I become?
I don't know any more and I can't change the things I've done
Time has left me behind
Like sand in a hourglass I'm left feeling high & dry
So many friends came & gone, victim to their disease
While I work day to day begging on my knees
Sometimes I wonder if they are better off
Rotting in the ground than lead by Donald Trump
Now that I'm older and still fucked in the head
Why am I still here while all my friends are dead
But I'll keep doing the things I always do
Remembering the good times I had with all of you
We are the old & the dead
Friends came & gone leaving me here instead
We are the old & the dead
No looking back, it is time to push ahead
