[Verse 1]
When I was young, I had a dream
That time would shift and speed up
That we grew old, grew our beards
Settled down and lost touch
And now and then, one of us
Would cut ties and then drift off
Our younger years fade away
And we're forced to move on
[Chorus]
But we've learned how to fake it
And we learned to be broke
And we've dodged all the bitterness
That grew in our homes
And you've proved me desperate
'Cause I'm still holding on
And you've learned I won't admit it
How hard it is to just let go
(How hard it is to just let go
How hard it is to just let go)
[Verse 2]
Now I dream life is a path
Full of vines to walk through
And maybe in a couple years
I'll tell you if there's some truth
We've never lost with sattelites
I could walk for five long days
And they'll glow forevermore
But my strength will soon fade
[Chorus]
But we've learned how to fake it
And we learned to be broke
And we've dodged all the bitterness
That grew in our homes
And you've proved me desperate
'Cause I'm still holding on
And you've learned I won't admit it
How hard it is to just let go
(How hard it is to just let go
How hard it is to just let go)
[Outro]
When I was young I had a wish
That I would take my bones away
Travel far, feel alive
See the sun from a new place
And I would lie under the lights
Of galaxies from far away
They'll glow forevermore
But my strength will soon fade
