Days Lyrics by Joelistics

Voyager

2011

[Verse 1]
I never did it for the money
I did it because I had a lot of time on my hands
Now I've got plans, to make more plans
All of my friends grew up and push prams
It hits you like bam, what's it all for?
Music was my life, then life got ignored
Then I lost hope, then I got broke
Then all I wrote came out as old folk
There goes my genius, blink and you missed it
Loop up the chorus, learn how to whistle it
If ya get an idea try not to fist it
It's like God whispered something insistent
Try not to block it, try not to drop it
When you get your grubby little paws on it
You gotta rock it, you gotta rock it
You got a rocket to the moon, get on it

[Pre-Chorus]
And it might not mean that much to you
It means a lot to me, and it's got to be
Something strange and familiar, I still wanna feel it
I still wanna feel the music

[Chorus]
As the days go by
As the days go by
As the days go by
As the days go by

[Verse 2]
My boys said "Kid, you redefine dope"
"Plus you had the presence of mind to rock the boat"
"Plus you had some hits from the rhymes in your folder"
"Had a bit of shine, and fell into a coma"
"Get back out there and do it all sober"
"Milk that shit until the cow falls over"
"Do it for the music, do it for the moment"
"Even if it never blows up, own it"
Kids these days want posters on their walls
Friends on Facebook, and ironic rap quotes
Me, I've got bad jokes, personal anecdotes
Songs for perennial underachievers
You want a revolution? Move to Beijing
You wanna get high and sing along? Then join in
Its all good, mad props
Truth of the matter salvation is ad hoc

[Pre-Chorus]
And it might not mean that much to you
It means a lot to me, and it's got to be
Something strange and familiar, I still wanna feel it
I still wanna feel the music

[Chorus]
As the days go by
As the days go by
As the days go by
As the days go by

[Verse 3]
It all breaks down to pride
A search for what makes the ride worthwhile
Look for the content, look for the star
Strap your shoes on and run that mile
Keep the fire inside alive
'Cause the world gets cold and it can pass you by
You can pass on the risk, convince the hurt
But that's a real bad way for you to pass the time
I used to wanna see my name in lights
I used to wanna be the one holding the mic
But these days, man, I've got nothing to prove
And its evident it might mean nothing to you
But if I didn't do it, I'd have nothing to do
I'd probably have nothing to do with you
So until the day, there's nothing more to say
I'm-a keep on singing the tune

[Chorus]
As the days go by
As the days go by
As the days go by
As the days say goodbye

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Sad boys with guitars (Know how I feel)
Birds in the park (Know how I feel)
Drunks in bars (Know how I feel)
Self sabotage (Knows how I feel)
Part-time retards (Know how I feel)
A big tub of lard (Knows how I feel)
Jean-Luc Picard (Knows how I feel)
Year 7 art class (Knows how I feel)
Your next big meal (Knows how I feel)
The invention of the wheel (Knows how I feel)
Yeah, yeah

[Outro]
It's just how I feel
It's just how I feel
It's just how I feel
It's just how I feel
It's just how I feel
It's just how I feel
