Once Surrounded - Mesh

You’ve gone from walking on air

To all the nights you’ve spent wrapped up in despair

You’d have to question what

You got in return

You watch as the years go slipping by

No amount of drugs could give you such a high

The longest lesson’s done

And what did you learn

Once surrounded but now they’re gone

Sing your part in your final song

Once you counted but that’s the thanks you get

But lock the door when you go to bed

What does it take to do it right

To keep the memories when it’s always such a fight

You have to walk the path

As the tide is coming in

When do you stop to see the light

When it’s so dark that a candle would seem bright

You’ve got your breathing back

You don’t know how to begin

Once surrounded but now they’re gone

Sing your part in your final song

Once you counted but that’s the thanks you get

But lock the door when you go to bed

And why should you walk away

With nothing

Why should you fade away

To nothing

Once surrounded but now they’re gone

Sing your part in your final song

Once you counted but that’s the thanks you get

But lock the door when you go to bed

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young

Just stay young
