Fools Lyrics by Cinders

Looking Forward To Looking Back

2018

[Verse 1]
Sneaking out through the back door
Push the car down the road before we start it
Mom and dad were still sleeping
While we were fools of the night
We could do this forever
Nothing needed to change
Seventeen was a good year
Now it isn't the same

[Chorus]
Do the days ache in your bones?
You are old enough to know
Does the clock stop right at nine
And tell you that it’s time?
You're on your own

[Verse 2]
You told yourself it was your fault
You never felt you were enough
Your mom was still sleeping
While dad was the fool of the night
You made decisions you hated
Something needed to change
Seventeen was a bad year
Now it isn't the same

[Chorus]
Do the days ache in your bones?
You are old enough to know
Does the clock stop right at nine
And tell you that it’s time?
You're on your own
Does it hurt to know?

[Bridge]
I can tell this'll be a bad day
I can tell it's gonna be a hard day
But we'll make it through
All those people who seem so happy
I can tell that they are not laughing
On the inside tonight
I can tell this'll be a bad day
I can tell it's gonna be a hard day
But we'll make it through
All those people who seem so happy
I can tell that they are not laughing
On the inside tonight

[Outro]
I can tell this’ll be a bad day
I can tell it’s gonna be a hard day
But we'll make it through
