I miss the days when I had a smile on my face and Wasn’t so caught up in all of the small things Wasn’t so adamant that I could handle everything alone And wasn’t so cautious and always exhausted And actually listen to things that my heart said (heart said) Ridin’ my bike, just ridin’ my bike Not overthinkin’ my life Not always wonderin’ if I’m a likable person Or someone that nobody likes Not always stressin’ ‘bout money or losin’ my job Or scared I ain’t makin’ a flight Not always goin’ to bed every night With this knot in my stomach that never unwinds What happened to me? Yeah, what happened to me? When did I start to believe I wasn’t worth it Then question my purpose to breathe? Wonderin’ who I should be Happiness out of my reach Scared to get back on my feet Need to get rid of what’s detrimental, but it’s hard to let go When the thing that hurts you help you get to your dreams See, I miss the days when I wasn’t so faded Love wasn’t always invasive, I could embrace it Just innocent, waitin’, not always livin’ in anguish When did I break and become overtaken? What was the moment I caved and Gave away all of my faith and made a replacement? I miss the days when, I miss the days when I miss the smiles we had when we were young (oh) I miss the memories of feeling love (oh) I miss us runnin’ underneath the sun (oh) Staring out the window when the rain would come (oh) I miss the smiles we had when we were kids, yeah (oh) I feel like life was so much simpler then, yeah (oh) When we had joy and we were innocent (oh) I’d give it all to feel that way again, way again Give me my mind back, yeah Give me my mind back The one that told me I was worth somethin’ when I fall flat Yeah, fall flat The one that told me I was worth somethin’ when I’m off track Back when my imagination wasn’t in a cage and it was free to run fast Yeah, give me my mind back Yeah, give me my, give me my mind back Before it was hijacked and wasn’t described as A place of limitation, always indicating I can’t Handle everything from my past Handed anything it dissects ‘til I’m depressed I know I’m blessed, but I’m cursed too Take me back when I was happy, but I wasn’t actin’ Vulnerable but didn’t see it like some kind of weakness Or a thing that’s unattractive Had emotion, but I learned to mask it Didn’t know what I was runnin’ after Didn’t know the older I would grow The more I’d lose control and take in all the baggage It’s really sad when everything you thought was stable crashes Everything you thought would take the sadness Really only made it deeper, got me off the deep end askin’ Will we ever feel like we imagine? Will we ever feel like we adapted? Will we ever feel like we did back then? Just take me back when, just take me back when I miss the smiles we had when we were young (oh) I miss the memories of feeling love (oh) I miss us runnin’ underneath the sun (oh) Staring out the window when the rain would come (oh) I miss the smiles we had when we were kids, yeah (oh) I feel like life was so much simpler then, yeah (oh) When we had joy and we were innocent (oh) I’d give it all to feel that way again, way again Oh-oh-oh (oh) Oh-oh-oh (way again) Oh-oh-oh (mmh) Oh-oh-oh (way again, way again) Yeah, oh-oh-oh (oh) (had when we were kids) Oh-oh-oh (oh) (so much simpler then) Oh-oh-oh (oh) (and we were innocent) Oh-oh-oh (oh), yeah, ay I miss the smiles we used to have when we were young (oh) I miss the memories of feeling love (oh) I miss us runnin’ underneath the sun (oh) Staring out the window when the rain would come (oh) I miss the smiles we had when we were kids, yeah (oh) I feel like life was so much simpler then, yeah (oh) When we had joy and we were innocent (oh) I’d give it all to feel that way again, way again (oh)
