Who You Were
It's nails on a chalkboard, sounds of the past
Don't ask me how long this will last
You're 70s music yet it's frozen in time
That carefree innocence etched in every single rhyme
They say ignorance is bliss, but what does that make this?
They say ignorance is bliss, but what does that make this?
Those old records, conversations unseen
It's hard to believe you weren't quite sixteen
You'll look back then and all you see is a blur
And you're tracing the lines of the chords once played
I don't know why you continue to wait
Look back then and all you see is a blur
You don't know who you were
You don't know who you were, who you were
Is this just a battle or a straight-up war
They don't quite get it, don't know what it's all for
Old summer evenings when the sky seemed more blue
Drunk on the scars of a stolen youth
They say ignorance is bliss, but what does that make this?
They say ignorance is bliss, but what does that make this?
Those old records, conversations unseen
It's hard to believe you weren't quite sixteen
You'll look back then and all you see is a blur
And you're tracing the lines of the chords once played
I don't know why you continue to wait
Look back then and all you see is a blur
You don't know who you were
You don't know who you were, who you were
What do they say about me?
What do they say about you?
No time for grieving when there's growing up to do
Must've hurt to grow up so young
There's no time to feel when there's school work to be done
They say ignorance is bliss, but what does that make this?
Ohhh
Those old records, conversations unseen
It's hard to believe you weren't quite sixteen
You'll look back then and all you see is a blur
Tracing the lines of the chords once played
I don't know why you continue to wait
Look back then and all you see is a blur
Those old records, conversations unseen
It's hard to believe you weren't quite sixteen
You'll look back then and all you see is a blur
Tracing the lines of the chords once played
I don't know why you continue to wait
Look back then and all you see is a blur
You don't know who you were
You don't know who you were, who you were
You don't know who you were, who you were
Don't ask me how long this will last
You're 70s music yet it's frozen in time
That carefree innocence etched in every single rhyme
They say ignorance is bliss, but what does that make this?
They say ignorance is bliss, but what does that make this?
Those old records, conversations unseen
It's hard to believe you weren't quite sixteen
You'll look back then and all you see is a blur
And you're tracing the lines of the chords once played
I don't know why you continue to wait
Look back then and all you see is a blur
You don't know who you were
You don't know who you were, who you were
Is this just a battle or a straight-up war
They don't quite get it, don't know what it's all for
Old summer evenings when the sky seemed more blue
Drunk on the scars of a stolen youth
They say ignorance is bliss, but what does that make this?
They say ignorance is bliss, but what does that make this?
Those old records, conversations unseen
It's hard to believe you weren't quite sixteen
You'll look back then and all you see is a blur
And you're tracing the lines of the chords once played
I don't know why you continue to wait
Look back then and all you see is a blur
You don't know who you were
You don't know who you were, who you were
What do they say about me?
What do they say about you?
No time for grieving when there's growing up to do
Must've hurt to grow up so young
There's no time to feel when there's school work to be done

Ohhh

It's hard to believe you weren't quite sixteen

Look back then and all you see is a blur
Those old records, conversations unseen
It's hard to believe you weren't quite sixteen
You'll look back then and all you see is a blur
Tracing the lines of the chords once played
I don't know why you continue to wait
Look back then and all you see is a blur
You don't know who you were
You don't know who you were, who you were
You don't know who you were, who you were
