Lost in the Years

[Intro]
Remember those good old days, we were just trying to find our way
Caught between the neon lights and the shadows of yesterday
Yeah, those were the years we didn't see the price we'd pay
Now we're looking back, asking how we let it slip away

[Verse 1]
Raised on dial-up, flipping through the TV screens
Clicking 'next' on dreams, chasing all those in-between scenes
We took our youth for granted, thought the world's a playground
Now it's breaking all around, silence echoing the sound

[Pre-Chorus]
Caught in the rush, we didn't see the storm
Battling the world, feeling lost and worn
The years slip by like grains of sand
Did we ever really understand?

[Chorus]
This is the end of innocence, we're breaking apart
Lost in the chaos, struggling with our heart
From 2000’s glow to the 2010’s pain
2020 hit, and nothing's been the same
No easy road, no shortcuts now
We’re fighting for breath, trying to figure how
To rise above, to stand and fight
In a world that’s lost its light

[Verse 2]
Grew up with the internet, thought we knew it all
Faced the fall, watched as empires crumbled and walls did fall
Social feeds and hopes, but inside feeling hollow
Running fast, barely dare to slow down or follow

[Pre-Chorus]
Out of the loop, no second chances
Caught in the crossfire of quick advances
Had the world at our fingertips
Now it’s slipping through our cracks

[Chorus]
This is the end of innocence, we're breaking apart
Lost in the chaos, struggling with our heart
From 2000’s glow to the 2010’s pain
2020 hit, and nothing's been the same
No easy road, no shortcuts now
We’re fighting for breath, trying to figure how
To rise above, to stand and fight
In a world that’s lost its light

[Bridge]
We were young, dreams in our eyes
Now we face the truth, with the world’s cries
Can we find the strength, rebuild, restart?
Or are we destined to fall apart?

[Outro]
So here’s to the years we can't rewind
To the hope we left behind
Maybe someday, we'll find our way
Through the darkness to the day

[End]
