Lyrics As Kids - The Devil Wears Prada

As Kids

My imagination was brighter
Above the streets — spotted circles
Destiny didn’t seem so vague
Control wasn’t so important
It’s now that the decades wash away
It’s now that I accept the blame
A reason was never mentioned
I had nothing but good intentions
Remember the flashes
The sky shining between the branches
It all seemed to be enough
It all seemed to be enough
As kids — keeping like the wind
Without a care at all
As kids — back when we could hear
The voices through the walls
Remember the flashes
The sky shining between the branches
It all seemed to be enough
It all seemed to be enough
Kicking rocks.
Breaking sticks
Starting fires out in the woods
Vices — insignificant
We were only young (We were only young)
It’s now that the decades wash away
It’s now that I accept the blame
A reason was never mentioned
I had nothing but good intentions
Now there’s new pain
Introducing a stranger
Grimacing while we break our backs
Can I get a taker
To assume the duties of our age?
Now there’s new pain
Remember the flashes
The sky shining between the branches
It all seemed to be enough
It all seemed to be
As kids — keeping like the wind
Without a care at all
As kids — back when we could hear
The voices through the walls
Remember the flashes
The sky shining between branches
It all seemed to be enough
It all seemed to be enough
