Newport Ave. - The Way Things Were Lyrics

The way things were
They used to be so great
Little death kills us a little more
And leads us closer to the light where I know you'll be a glimmer
Every time I walk into darkness

I'll miss it all now
I'll miss it til the end
Did I miss anything you felt you wanted me to comprehend
I felt this from the start
And now I feel its hard to live
When everything seems dimmed

Where you were the spark of light to everything
F*cking everything
You were the spark I felt from the start

Where does the road lead now
Taking off without a sound
Wondering reasons I hold this frown
Her golden hair began to glare
This beauty has me scared
Nothing compares to how I feel about you

The walls shattered in time
A while longer and it could've been fine
Trace back the memories
The ones so incomplete
Reflect all the hate; stand by your self esteem
Where's this road leading now

Tame the beast that's left inside
I guess what's said isn't right
Move on and I'll be fine
Yet I'm typing out these lines
Places to go but there's no view without you

Where's this road leading now
