The B-Side

What happened to the life we knew
I can't blame it on you
It's famous and true
Is my youth fading away
Out into the blue
Like some kind of new
Version of what I thought it'd be like
I can't take you up on a free ride
I'll just put it all on the B side
It'll fade like the glow of your tail lights

Days fly by in nebulous haze
When there's nothing to do I've got nothing to say
I can't be alone
For more than an hour or I start to decay
What if I need a change
How I can stop from slipping away
My guitar and your face
Carve out a space in endless delay

What happened to the life we knew
I can't blame it on you
It's aimless and true
Is my youth fading away
Out into the blue like some kind of new
Version of what I thought it'd be like
I can't take you up on a free ride
I'll just put it all on the B side
It'll fade like the glow of the street lights

Weeks fly by 'til they get in a crash
I guess what we had was just too good to last
I love to live fast
But if I don't slow down I know I won't know how
To tell you all about how it turns out
Cause at this speed I'm for sure gonna burn out

What happened to the life I knew
I can't see through the blue and the shadow of you
And in case I didn't get this through I don't blame it on you
You light up the room
