Too Far Gone

Let it down, let it down, let it down now Let it down, let it down, let it down now Let it down, let it down, let it down now I always hate nostalgia Living in the past No use getting misty-eyed It all screamed by so fast When life was so much calmer Severely buttoned up The future rich in promises Milk flowing from the cup I would spend those lazy days Lying on a ridge Watching girls in cotton dresses Diving off the bridge Is it too far gone? Is it too far gone? Is it too, too far Too far gone This was once the country Now its all the town What was once the tallest spire Is just a building crumblin' down And I'm living in a factory That's a million dollar flat I'm not looking for Arcadia Cause its never coming back I would spend my childhood days Lost in starry dreams And now watch my children Just downloading them to screens Let it down, let it down, let it down Let it down, let it down, let it down 'Cause it's too far gone It's too far gone Yeah, it's too, too far Too far gone Let it down, let it down, let it down I'm lying in the garden Carpets in the shade Thinking of the future And all the love we saved The world outside is ugly It's bitter and it's harsh Well, each of us protect ourselves We're hostage of the past And it's too far gone Yeah, it's too far gone I wonder where did we go wrong And it's too, too far And it's too, too far Too far gone
