about

A nostalgic song of yearning and introspection.

lyrics

Was a year ago, I was a different boy,
The only tears I cried then were tears of joy,
Now I wander the lonely city streets at night,
Where the rats roam free under fluorescent light.

Was a year ago, I was a different man,
I didn't walk around town with my head in the sand,
I was on top of the world but, oh, that was then,
Give my life and soul to go back again.

I had only just met you,
All too soon I bid thee adieu.

Wasn't long ago I was a cheerful lad,
It took a world full of hatred to make me sad,
Now a sarcastic word will set my brain on fire,
The power of my will is second to your desires.

You said it was okay, but I didn't listen,
I'd sooner hang myself then let down a friend.
You were more than that, so it stands to reason,
That I'd slowly break with every passing season.

Year ago,
Year ago,
I had only just met you,
All too soon I bid thee adieu.

Stumbled to the bottom and you held out your hand,
You'd made the motion before, but I didn't understand,
That the way I lived life, I wouldn't last very long,
Or if I did I didn't care, even though I was wrong.

Year ago,
Year ago,
I had only just met you,
All too soon I bid thee adieu.
