Of Sinners + Saints - It's Been a Lifetime

Those summer days we used to know
Now buried beneath a frozen foot of snow
The seasons have their way of changing
Now the winter winds are growing cold
I fear that I am getting old
I used to shine, now I'm finally fading tonight
A twisted bit of paradox
That clashes round like falling rocks
And suffocates what used to be a memory
Yeah, we hid ourselves so far away
Just dreaming of a brighter day
A vicious cycle, won't you please come save me
Yeah, we're falling
Everything's gone changing
Life needs rearranging just so we get by in these trying times
Don't you remember me at all
Oh, this decade feeling like forever
Heartbreak since December
We hid familiar faces on the shelf
It's been a lifetime
Trade our old guitars in for whiskey and cigars
And lonely faces that reflect our former flames and former selves
The past and present feel the same
But only in my broken name
I see my future falling into pieces
Yeah, I used to be the one with sense
But that don't make no difference
When everything you knew suddenly ceases
Yeah, we're stalling
Can hear the voices calling
Feeling so damn helpless like you've never felt this feeling here
Don't you remember me at all
Oh, this decade feeling like forever
Heartbreak since December
We hid familiar faces on the shelf
It's been a lifetime
Trade our old guitars in for whiskey and cigars
And lonely faces that reflect our former flames and former selves
