lyrics
Gone are the days, when we'd search for any ways
to skip class just to find ourselves in the fields of Hyrule.
Gone is a time, when our aptitude was defined
by words on a page and promptness before the bell
before the bell
Now are the days, where our confidence finds its grave,
and the robbing rich they steal from the pleading poor.
And now is the time, for an imperial frame of mind
when our dreams play out in a galaxy far, far away.
So do you love what you do?
Do the days bring a smile?
Does the grass seem green on all the sides?
and do you sing in your car?
What were your dreams a child?
If you could make one change what would it be,
what would it be?
So do you know who you are?
Does your soul feel on fire?
What would they say if you died today?
Have you fallen in love?
Ever questioned your god?
If you could give one gift what would it be,
what would it be?
I long for the days when my childhood had its way,
and simplicity sat in the shadows and under the stones.
I long for a time, when my god was not defined,
and he felt for me exactly as I felt for him.
I long for the days.
to skip class just to find ourselves in the fields of Hyrule.
Gone is a time, when our aptitude was defined
by words on a page and promptness before the bell
before the bell
Now are the days, where our confidence finds its grave,
and the robbing rich they steal from the pleading poor.
And now is the time, for an imperial frame of mind
when our dreams play out in a galaxy far, far away.
So do you love what you do?
Do the days bring a smile?
Does the grass seem green on all the sides?
and do you sing in your car?
What were your dreams a child?
If you could make one change what would it be,
what would it be?
So do you know who you are?
Does your soul feel on fire?
What would they say if you died today?
Have you fallen in love?
Ever questioned your god?
If you could give one gift what would it be,
what would it be?
I long for the days when my childhood had its way,
and simplicity sat in the shadows and under the stones.
I long for a time, when my god was not defined,
and he felt for me exactly as I felt for him.
I long for the days.
