I miss the days when I had a smile on my face and Wasn't so caught up in all of the small things Wasn't so adamant that I could handle everything alone It wasn't so cautious and always exhausted And actually listen to things that my heart said It's riding my bike, it's riding my bike Not overthinking my life Not always wondering if I'm a likable person Or someone that nobody likes Not always stressing about money or losing my job Or scared I ain't making a flight Not always going to bed every night With this knot in my stomach that never unwinds What happened to me? Yeah, what happened to me? When did I start to believe? I wasn't worth any question, my purpose debris Wondering who I should be Happiness out of my reach, scared to get back on my feet Need to get rid of what's detrimental, but it's hard to let go When the thing that hurt you helped me get to your dreams See, I miss the days when I wasn't so faded Love wasn't always invasive, I could embrace it Just innocent waiting, not always living in anguish When did I break and become overtaken? What was the moment I caved And gave away all of my faith and made a replacement? I miss the days when, I miss the days when I miss the smiles we had when we were young I miss the memories of feeling love I miss us running underneath the sun Staring out the window when the rain would come I miss the smiles we had when we were kids I feel like life was so much simpler then When we had joy and we were innocent I'd give it all to feel that way again Give me my mind back, give me my mind back The one that told me I was worth something when I fall flat, yeah, fall flat The one that told me I was worth something when I'm off track Back when my imagination wasn't in the cage And it was free to run fast, yeah, give me my mind back Give me my mind back Before it was hijacked And wasn't described as A place of limitation Always indicating I can't Handle everything from my past Handed anything it dissects Till I'm depressed I know I'm blessed but I'm cursed too Take me back when I was happy but I wasn't acting Vulnerable but didn't see it Like some kind of weakness or a thing that's unattractive Had emotion but I learned to mask it Didn't know what I was running after Didn't know the older I would grow The more I lose control I'm taking all the baggage It's really sad when Everything you thought was stable crashes Everything you thought would take the sadness Really only made it deeper Got me off the deep end asking Will we ever feel like we imagined? Will we ever feel like we adapted? Will we ever feel like we did back? Then just take me back when, just take me back when I miss the smiles we had when we were young I miss the memories of feeling love I miss us running underneath the sun Staring out the window when the rain would come I miss the smiles we had when we were kids I feel like life was so much simpler then When we had joy and we were innocent I'd give it all to feel that way again I miss the smiles we had when we were young I miss the memories of feeling love I miss us running underneath the sun Staring out the window when the rain would come I miss the smiles we had when we were kids I feel like life was so much simpler then When we had joy and we were innocent I'd give it all to feel that way again I miss the smiles we had when we were kids I feel like life was so much simpler then
