Back Then - Light Years

You and me are a different breed who cut our teeth on the same 6 strings

Another week another basement show

Breaking glass on dead end roads

We were young and dumb and a little fucked up back then

Chasing girls from private schools, sneaking into swimming pools

Rode our bikes all over town and cops would always chase us down

We were young and dumb and a little fucked up back then

But I wouldn’t change a thing

Yeah we were young we burned it down

But the fire smoked us out

You were gone when I turned around

Nothing left for us to do now

And time it always wins

And good things always end

Now that it came and went

Everything was better back then

Headed west for the very first time and the van broke down a million times

Didn’t know where we’d sleep at night

It was the best time of our lives

We were young and dumb and a little fucked up back then

But I wish I could do it again

Yeah we were young we burned it down

But the fire smoked us out

You were gone when I turned around

Nothing left for us to do now

And time it always wins

And good things always end

Now that it came and went

Everything was better back then

If it’s a long way up, then it’s a long way down

Then it’s a long way down

If it’s a long way up, then it’s a long way down

Then it’s a long way down

If it’s a long way up, then it’s a long way down

Then it’s a long way down

If it’s a long way up, then it’s a long way down

It’s a long way down
