About the days of old

Take a quick picture then you run home

Call up my friends

No one picks up
B B
I guess I'm going out all alone again
[Verse 3]
E C#m
It's time to grow up, but I don't wanna calm down

Everything happens for a reason somehow
B B B B
But, I know that’s not true, the meaningless is just the same common purpose that I love but might not

Oh mama how I miss those days

Some old freak like me

Kiss him in the rain

Everything about it is so fuckin' insane

Here comes an old witch with a poison apple

Cause it doesn't make sense to me
