lyrics

They were
The greatest of days, yeah
And I don’t like to compare
But it felt like warfare

We were
The greatest of rivals
We swore on the bible
It meant our survival

Somehow we made the through
And reached the place we’re running to
We came around at twenty-two
Just blinking out the blindness
I tell you now that, as for me,
It wouldn’t be a blasphemy
To say I’m not a devotee
Of any acts of kindness

Those were the days
Of heartbreak and fun
The language it slays
Taking down everyone
The habit it stays
Of a weaponised tongue
There’s so many ways
Of coming undone

You were
So iconoclastic
A friend but sarcastic
Just destroying the plastic

They were
Desirable objects
We didn’t know what next
Superior and complex

And now the world is ours
We left behind the ivory towers
And faced up to the superpowers
Of taking down the foolish
But all the innocent
The crossfire and the good intent
Don’t understand the way it’s meant
To say we are the coolest
