A Long Way Past the Past [Solstice]

Lyrics

[Verse 1] More than I had in mind More than I wish I knew And now it's near on me, some rush of red fear My worst old times look fine from here [Verse 2] I know you walked this route And you might help me out You said what's done is done, I can't turn the hand 'round But still it looks a long way down [Chorus] Oh man, was it that much better then? We were left alone, we were proud of our pain And so I want to walk out in the night See the wide young river flood rain [Verse 3] We're not on one straight line I made my own way through And when the track goes cold, I'll know that it's true That rebirth won't work like it used to [Chorus] Oh man, was it that much better then? We were left alone, we were proud of our pain And so I want to walk out in the night See the wide young river flood rain [Bridge] And I can't let go of a lot I've left I'm holding nothing but what I kept And it all got dimmer each passing step And I need you with me, and you read the writ Are you now insisting, is it not worth it? But I've got no option, I inherited this and I'm overcome [Outro] That's that, we're a long way from the past I'll be better off in a year or in two
