Lyrics
Once Surrounded
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You've gone from walking on air
To all the nights you've spent wrapped up in despair
You'd have to question what
You got in return
You watch as the years go slipping by
No amount of drugs could give you such a high
The longest lesson's done
And what did you learn
Once surrounded but now they're gone
Sing your part in your final song
Once you counted but that's the thanks you get
But lock the door when you go to bed
What does it take to do it right
To keep the memories when it's always such a fight
You have to walk the path
As the tide is coming in
When do you stop to see the light
When it's so dark that a candle would seem bright
You've got your breathing back
You don't know how to begin
Once surrounded but now they're gone
Sing your part in your final song
Once you counted but that's the thanks you get
But lock the door when you go to bed
And why should you walk away
With nothing
Why should you fade away
To nothing
Once surrounded but now they're gone
Sing your part in your final song
Once you counted but that's the thanks you get
But lock the door when you go to bed
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay young
Just stay Young
