Zak's Friend - i was in a band Lyrics

Sweat our weight in my garage
Playing songs we wrote no one would hear
Meant every word I ever said
Even if I can't remember them
And now all of it seems so far away
But the feelings all still feel the same
Older now, I'm always thinking about
All the shit that I'm still figuring out

We would hide from our friends in the neighbor's yard
While they would threaten to call the cops on us
Jump over the fence into the swimming pool
Then flee through the woods in our bare feet
The future seemed so far away
And the summer felt so short
Looking back I was just a stupid kid
But the older I get the less I know

It all seems so far away
But the future seems like a distant place
Stuck awkwardly between the two
No exit signs between the routes
My past feels like a movie script
Replay it back and reminisce
I'm still the way I was back then
But I don't have time to play pretend anymore

I was in a band
I couldn't sing but we didn't care
I was in a band
Years ago but I don't care
I don't care

Swinging sticks and lighting fires
Walking through the woods for miles
Four square and video games
Stay out past curfew way too late
Homemade napalm, flashlight tag
Filming videos to make us laugh
All of it feels so far away
Still frozen in a picture frame
