In this deeply personal track, the artist is grappling with feelings of regret and longing for better times. He expresses a deep desire to be anywhere but his current situation, hinting at a struggle with inner turmoil or perhaps a toxic environment. The repeated reference to 'good years' might suggest a reflection on past moments of joy and fulfillment, which he fears may have been squandered. The lyrics also touch on themes of substance abuse and unresolved conflict, adding to the sense of wasted time and opportunities. Despite these heavy sentiments, there's an undercurrent of hope as he yearns for a chance to feel alive again. This song serves as a poignant reminder that it's never too late to change our course and seek happiness.
Good Years
Lyrics
I'd rather be anywhere
Anywhere but here
I'd rather be anywhere
Anywhere but here
I close my eyes and see a crowd of a thousand tears
I pray to God I didn't waste all my good years
All my good years
All my good years
The voices screaming loud as hell
We don't care 'bout no one else
Nothing in the world could bring us down
Now we're so high among the stars without a worry
And neither one, one of us wants to say we're sorry
I'd rather be anywhere
Anywhere but here
I'd rather be anywhere
Anywhere but here
I close my eyes and see a crowd of a thousand tears
I pray to God I didn't waste all my good years
All my good years
All my good years
Too much drugs and alcohol
What the hell were we fighting for?
'Cause now the whole damn world will know
That we're too numb and just too dumb to change the story
Neither one, one of us wants to say we're sorry
I'd rather be anywhere
Anywhere but here
I'd rather be anywhere
Anywhere but here
I close my eyes and see a crowd of a thousand tears
I pray to God I didn't waste all my good years
All my good years
All my good years
Need a chance just to breathe, feel alive
And when the day meets the night, show me the light
Feel the wind and the fire hold the pain deep inside
It's in my eyes
In my eyes
I'd rather be anywhere
Anywhere but here
I'd rather be anywhere
Anywhere but here
I close my eyes and see a crowd of a thousand tears
I pray to God I didn't waste all my good years
All my good years
All my good years
I pray to God I didn't waste all my good years
All my good years
All my good years
