about

Lost Days is a lamentation on some of the things that have held me back over the past few years. I really felt it belonged on Colours because ultimately, part of being your best self means accepting your limitations. They are a part of who you are, just as much as your strengths. But sometimes that can feel really unfair, and this song was about allowing myself to grieve for the time and the opportunities that I had lost because of what I was going through at the time.

lyrics

Look at me now, I'm doing better
I've emptied out my glass of wine
I took my pills, and got enough rest
But I'm getting old before my time

Who would I be if you'd never touched me?
If you took all the pain away?
Who would I be if I'd never known you?
If you gave me back all the lost days

Look at me now, I'm getting somewhere
But for every step I take I've paid a price
I lost some friends, quit my old scene
And had to choose some parts of me to sacrifice

Who would I be if you'd never touched me?
If you took all the pain away?
Who would I be if I'd never known you?
If you gave me back all the lost days

Who would I be if you'd never touched me?
If you took all the pain away?
I'll never know who I would be without you
If I could get back all those lost days
