lyrics

We were so young back then, we were daring to try now we take to the side. Everything feels like a headwind. I was never sure, where it all fit in, we make a killing, the wealth is comforting and then we die. Everything feels like a headwind. You used to smile like the world was yours, when I was your boat and you held the oars. The bliss and the woe, it all comes in waves and eases your heart when you turn away. The bliss and the woe, it held us upright, the brownout and the light will lead you home. Bled out the days, it's the only way to hide in the fables that kept us drifting out. Everything feels like a headwind. We were so clear, lived past the noise. We waste our money and time on shit that leaves us with no choice. Everything feels like a headwind. Wait on a wire 'till you see the end, took the longest road and made the most friends.
