Lyrics
All my friends say they're doing fine
All my friends portray themselves as doing well.
Never act like they're trying to find
They don't act as if they're searching.
The things that we left behind
Reminiscing about things we left in the past.
But my mind still takes me
My thoughts often revisit that time.
Back then sitting on the couch in the basement
Recalling moments sitting on a basement couch.
Tryna figure out where the days went
Trying to understand where our time went.
When we didn't have to work just to pay rent
Reflecting on a period when paying rent wasn't a necessity.
Nights we wasted driving to the radio station
Memories of driving aimlessly to the radio.
Couldn't skip the songs that we hated
Unable to skip disliked songs during those drives.
It felt like time slowed down
Time feeling slower during those moments.
We were shooting for the stars
We aimed high for success.
Never thought that we would fall
We never expected to fail.
Had our fingers holding tight to all out dreams like cheap cigars
We held onto our dreams tightly, similar to how one holds cheap cigars.
Those nights were ours
Those particular nights belonged to us.
Hey, do you remember all the times
Recollection of times spent discussing unfulfilled aspirations.
We'd stay up talking 'bout the things we never did?
Staying up late discussing what we didn't accomplish.
Stay for just a little while now
Invitation to stay briefly and pretend to relive those emotions.
And let's pretend like we can feel that way again
Imagining a return to that emotional state.
We were shooting for the stars
Similar to line 12, reiteration of aiming for success.
Never thought that we would fall
Similar to line 13, not anticipating failure.
Had our fingers holding tight to all out dreams like cheap cigars
Recalling the tight grip on dreams, akin to cheap cigars.
Those nights were ours
Those particular nights were exclusively ours.
