Tell Me When Did Things Go So Wrong
Lost Sunshine: Unraveling the Shadows of Change
Lyrics
We used to walk inthe sun with our heads held up high
We used to confidently embrace life, facing the sun with pride.
We used to stand on our own and we never asked why
We used to be independent and didn't question our choices.
We used to do everything we were told not to do
We used to defy societal norms and rules.
But now we all stand in line like the rest of them do
Now, we conform and follow the crowd without questioning.
CHORUS
< em > CHORUS : The repetition emphasizes a significant change or loss.
And now it's gone gone gone
Expressing the disappearance of something valuable or positive.
Tell me when did things go so wrong
Pleading to understand when and how things took a negative turn.
We used to laugh in their face at the things that they said
We used to mock and disregard criticism from others.
And if we had to be them, then we'd rather be dead
Choosing death over becoming like those we once ridiculed.
And now we all stand in line like the rest of them do
Now, we've succumbed to conformity, standing in line with others.
We let it all slip away, tell me what did we do?
Regretfully acknowledging the loss of something precious; questioning our actions.
CHORUS
< em > CHORUS : Reiteration of the profound impact of the negative change.
All right-yeah
An interjection expressing affirmation or agreement.
CHORUS
< em > CHORUS : Repeating the plea for understanding the downfall.
We used to walk in the sun with our heads held up high
Reflecting on the past, emphasizing the contrast with the present.
We used to stand on our own and we never asked why
Highlighting a previous ability to be self-sufficient and independent.
We used to do everything we were told not to do
Recalling a rebellious spirit that now seems lost.
But now we all stand in line like the rest of them do
Reiteration of the conformity and loss of individuality.
