escape from the zoo - wasted years lyrics

[spoken quote]
“you think you figure this is how were supposed to be? well its not! we’re young. we’re supposed to drink too much. we’re supposed to have bad attitudes and sh+g each other’s brains out. we are designed to party. this is it. yeah, so a few of us will overdose or go mental. we had it all. we f+cked up bigger and better than any generation that came before us, we were so beautiful! you’rе wearing cardigans!”

we started so young, our dirеction unknown
we just fell and we rose with the tides
light+years from perfect and destined to fail
but it sure was a h+ll of a ride

it all seemed so rad
drugs and booze on the tracks
’til a friend turned up dead or in jail
then after a while it got harder to smile
once we realized we were living in h+ll

[bridge]
for days ‘n daze we ran place to place to dull the hate and pain
but now the weights been lifted cause we’re circling the drain

[chorus]
wasted years, photo albums buried under tons of beers
i remember when we thought we were invincible
kings of the road, but now we’re growin’ old and slowin’ down

in the beginning it was all so exciting
when we still had so much left to learn
we’d not yet been jaded, our senses unfaded
when we still had hope left for the world
still fairly unfamiliar with tragedy and armed with a propensity
for making the best out of bad
but our dispositions far more dismal nowadays because
somewhere along the way
we forgot about all the good times that we’ve had
[bridge]
for days ‘n daze we ran place to place to dull the hate and pain
but now the weights been lifted cause we’re circling the drain

[chorus]
wasted years, photo albums buried under tons of beers
i remember when we thought we were invincible
kings of the road, but now we’re growin’ old and slowin’ down

if i could turn back time, rewind the clocks to yesteryear
i’d do it all the same ’cause all the missteps got me here
i’ve learned my lessons, paid my dues
the future’s now, no time to lose
what’s next is anybody’s guess and i can’t wait to find out

wasted years, photo albums buried under tons of beers
i remember when we thought we were invincible
kings of the road, but now we’re growin’ old and slowin’ down

wasted years, photo albums buried under tons of beers
i remember when we thought we were invincible
kings of the road, but now we’re growin’ old and slowin’ down
now it’s time to pass along the crown
dress me up and drop me in the ground!!
