4 Letter Words

Back when I was 15 years old
We used to drive up to the top of old tunnel road
And watch the skaters bomb down
Like an asphalt snowboard
Riding free, with no cares in the world

We used to look out over the foggy bay
Smoking joints in your car every Saturday
And talk about our hopes and dreams
And how we can escape, one way
Oh you used to say

One Day
One day we'll get out of this place
Through the tunnel
We'll make it after all
We'll all make it after all
Okay, One day
We'll look back upon this place
Wishing things
Were like
What we had before
Like what we had before

Coming home after a long time
I've been away
Chasing the dream
Or is the dream chasing me
There's no rabbit
In the bottom of that hat
Sure, Things are different
But they ain't that bad

I found 4 letter words
Sprayed all over the walls
Of love, life, and death
And truth be told
I think every person
Walking down the street
Is singing a similar song
Is singing a different tune
But the same old song

One Day
One day we'll get out of this place
Through the tunnel
We'll make it after all
We'll all make it after all
Okay, One day
We'll look back upon this place
Wishing things
Were like
What we had before
Like what we had before

Through the tunnel
We can make it

One Day
One day we'll get out of this place
Through the tunnel
We'll make it after all
We'll all make it after all
Okay, One day
We'll look back upon this place
Wishing things
Were like
What we had before
Like what we had before
