Lyrics by Matt Kerstein

We were once happy, just you and me
Before it got so hard to believe
And everything lasted for eternity
We always found new ways to just be

A new way forward was all we’d ever need
But our needs became greater
They overtook me

So fare thee well to the old guard
It didn’t have to be so hard
The things we say to each other
Oh, what did it mean

You dumb it down for the silver
Dumb it down for the ease
You dumb it down so it won’t be so hard
To take what you can from defeat.
