Johnny Manchild & The Poor Bastards
Four Years Gone
[Verse 1]
We were four years strong
But I was in the wrong
Thinking you would come around for me
Time kept moving on
Everyday dusk 'til dawn
Still I waited for you to come home
And everyday
It all stayed the same
A spoken girl and broken boy
Falling picture frames
Chasing memories
Forgotten time shared between two
[Pre-Chorus]
If you listen closely
You can hear the past
If you feel so lonely
We can take it all back
[Chorus]
Don't you see what we have done
Burned the houses hit and run
We were four years strong
And now we're four years gone
[Verse 2]
Taste my dialect
A mouth of disrespect
And some words I'll never say to you
Tripping on my tongue
When everything's undone
The rain fell and you left me out to dry
You say he's just a friend
Well I'm here in the end
Picking up what someone else had left
An internal war
While passed out on the floor
And nothing's changed with four years more
[Pre-Chorus]
If you listen closely
You can hear the past
If you feel so lonely
We can take it all back
[Chorus]
Don't you see what we have done
Burned the houses hit and run
We were four years strong
And now we're four years gone
