The Girls I Used to Know

I cast a shadow
Shining brightly though
A careless stencil owed
To the girls I used to know

I stepped from the gallows
This hangless head held high
Learnt neither do nor die
And all I have to show
Are the girls I used to know

Contemplated, overstated, ways to change the flow
Fill your soul with timeless roles and face my golden row
Then raise a glass to times I've passed with girls I used to know
When everything stopped, I fought my battles alone

Sunny days, always on my mind
The marks you leave behind
Faded scars from times
You were steadfast by my side

Uninvited thoughts of dying take their time to go
Wading through the shades of blue that keep me on my own
I'll raise a glass to times I've passed with girls I used to know
When everything stopped, I fought my battles alone

Here, where our story stops, all our worries rot, and roll

Contemplate this overstated way to change the flow
Fill your life with timeless nights and take your gold and row
I'd raise a glass to times I've passed with girls I used to know
When everything stops, I fight my battles alone

With the girls I used to know
With the girls I used to know
With the girls I used to know
With a girl that you still know
