Legacy Lyrics by Volcanoes

When We Were Young

0

[Verse One]
I spoke too soon
It hurts me too
But I can’t pretend that this isn’t the end
It’s hard to make
This feel okay (Take back your memories)
I won’t be your legacy
[Verse Two]
Am I the one to blame?
Is it the both of us?
Is there a hope that someday
I can ever be enough?
If this is all a game
Who wins it anyway?
I’m choking on the way
You said you had changed
[Chorus]
This is me giving up
I never learned how to love
You never showed me
You never—
I break the silence
Are you hearing me now?
Our time’s running out
Our time’s running out
I stop the bleeding when I’m holding it in
I see you again
But it runs over my hands
[Verse 3]
Complicating everything
If everyone around you feels the same
What’s the use in trying to explain?
From the outside looking in
It must look like a dream
But every word left unsaid
Is a nightmare that never sleeps
[Chorus]
This is me giving up
I never learned how to love
You never showed me
You never—
I break the silence
Are you hearing me now?
Our time’s running out
Our time’s running out
I stop the bleeding when I’m holding it in
I see you again
But it runs over my hands
[Bridge]
You came and pulled me from the fire you started
And call yourself the hero (You’ll never be the hero)
You’re the match
I’m the fire
Burn it down
And build it higher
You’ll never be my hero
[Verse Four]
I spoke too soon
It hurts me too
But I can’t pretend that this isn’t the end
It’s hard to make
This feel okay (Take back your memories)
I won’t be your legacy
[Chorus]
I break the silence
Are you hearing me now?
Our time’s running out
Our time’s running out
I stop the bleeding when I’m holding it in
I see you again
But it runs over my hands
