Let it down let it down

Let it down now

Let it down let it down

Let it down now

Let it down let it down

Let it down now

I always hate nostalgia

Living in the past

No use getting misty eyed

It all screamed by so fast

When life was so much calmer

Severely buttoned up

The future rich in promises

Milk flowing from the cup

I would spend those lazy days

Lying on a ridge

Watching girls in cotton dresses

Diving off the bridge

Is it too far gone

Is it too far gone

Is it too too far gone

Too far gone

This was once the country

Now it's all the town

What was once the tallest spire

Is just building crumbled down

And I'm lving in a factory

That's a million dollar flat

I'm not looking for arcadia

Cause it's never coming back

I would spend my childhood days

Lost in starry dreams

And now watch my children

Just downloading them to screens

Let it down let it down let it down

Let it down let it down let it down

Cause it's too far gone

Too far gone [cont]

Yeah it's too far gone

Yeah it's too too

Too far too far gone

Let it down let it down let it down

I'm lying in a garden

Carpets in the shade

Thinking of the future

And all the love we saved

The world outside is ugly

It's bitter and it's harsh

We each of us protect ourselves

We're hostage to the past

And it's too far gone

It's too far gone

I wonder where did we go wrong

And it's too too far

And it's too too far

Too far gone
