Lyrics Flashbacks - Jamestown Story

Flashbacks

Had enough
Of the right that we know when it’s wrong
Of the good times to know when they’re gone
Of the songs that remain be sung
Living life
Carefree and bannered in youth
Built on eternal debut
Neglecting and stretching the truth
Watching time slip away and all its color fade to gray
What’s been written in stone can’t be erased
Looking back
We were so young and naïve
To pretend growing up was impossible
Hell, we thought it was optional
Now there’s shadows
Where color found life in the past
And silence where voice had a chance
Left with questions that we’ll never ask
We let time slip away and all its color fade to gray
What we’ve written in stone can’t be erased
It’s sad how life slips away
In the blink of an eye it’s gone by
And the flashbacks are all that we manage to save
If we’re lost and can’t find a way
To turn these embers back into a flame
Keep holding on
If we’re lost with no where to run
If the rush we’ve been chasing is gone
Keep holding on
We let time slip away and watched its color fade to gray
But what we’ve written in stone can’t be erased
We saw how life slips away
In the blink of an eye it’s gone by
And the flashbacks are all that we manage to save
