Lyrics

So many years, so many memories

Reflecting on many years filled with memories.

Slippin' from my hands

Experiencing a sense of loss and things slipping away.

All of your words, bitter to my ears

Recalling words from someone that feel hurtful or unpleasant.

Don't know where I'll land

Feeling uncertain about the future, not knowing where one will end up.


But I feel like every step I take is the wrong one

Expressing a constant feeling of making wrong decisions or choices.

And I know I'm gonna let you down

Acknowledging the likelihood of disappointing someone.


Though I seem selfish, when you're not looking out for me

Admitting a perception of selfishness when not being observed.

I'm guilty of the charge

Taking responsibility for being guilty of a certain charge or wrongdoing.

And I try to make this right, but it's not right

Attempting to rectify a situation, but recognizing that it remains unresolved.


But what can I do, it's too late

Feeling a sense of helplessness, acknowledging that it's too late to change things.

I don't wanna be broken, but it's too late

Expressing a desire not to be emotionally shattered, despite the inevitability of it happening.


'Cause the days will get darker

Acknowledging that difficult times lie ahead.

And the distance gets greater

Recognizing an increasing emotional and physical distance from someone or something.

And I know the sun will come up, just not today

Understanding that optimism and hope may not be present in the immediate future.

Yeah the days will get darker

Reiterating the expectation of challenging times and growing emotional distance.

And the distance gets greater

Emphasizing the inevitability of difficult circumstances and increasing separation.

And I know the sun will come up, just not today

Repeating the realization that the sun, symbolizing hope, won't shine today.


'Cause the days will get darker

Stressing the persistence of challenging times and growing emotional distance.

And the distance gets greater

Reiterating the understanding that optimism may not be present in the near future.

And I know the sun will come up, just not today

Emphasizing the inevitability of difficult circumstances and increasing separation.

Yeah the days will get darker

Highlighting the expectation of challenging times and growing emotional distance.

And the distance gets greater

Repeating the realization that the sun, symbolizing hope, won't shine today.

And I know the sun will come up, just not today

Consistently acknowledging the persistence of challenging times and a lack of immediate hope.
