they said it would be the years of our lives -- it was impending truth
the pressure that pushed us out to shore, glorified monotonous
we all jumped ship, we all jumped ship
these were the years of our lives
well, well look what we have here it's all of you and you look so scared --
i won't let this go
let me dream my life away -- at least i'm going somewhere
oh my god, i won't let this go
you won't get the best of us because you haven't seen it yet
i was never hopeless but i didn't know i'd have someone like you by my side -- you brought out the best in me and for that i will never forget
they said it would be the years of our lives -- it was the impending truth
the pressure that pushed us out to shore, we all jumped ship
we can't be stopped
you can't get the best of us because you haven't found it yet
you haven't found anything
(i was never hopeless but i didn't know i'd have someone like you by my side)
we are the boundless beating the eternal
we were slaves to our youth
and now we can't be stopped
these were the years of our lives
the years of our lives
let me dream my life away, at least i'm going somewhere
when dreaming is all we have, and i feel like i'm going somewhere
i'm dreaming my life away
i was never hopeless but i didn't know i'd have someone like you by my side -- you brought out the best in me and for that i will never forget
