So Long Astoria Lyrics

    It was the first snow of the season
    i can almost see you breathin
    in the middle of that empty street

    Sometimes i still see myself
    in that lonesome bedroom
    playin my guitar
    and singing songs of hope
    for a better future

    life is....only....
    as good as the memories we make
    and i'm taking back what belongs to me

    polaroids of classrooms unattended
    these relics of remembrence
    are just like shipwrecks
    only theyre gone faster
    than the smell after it rains

    last night while everyone was sleepin
    i tripped through my old neighborhood
    and resurrected memories from ashes

    we said that we would never fit in
    but we were really just like them
    does rebellion ever make a difference

    life is
    only
    as good as the memories we make
    and im taking back what belongs to me
    polaroids of classrooms unattended
    these relics of remembrence
    are just like shipwrecks
    only theyre gone faster
    than the smell after it rains

    So long astoria
    i found a map to buried treasure
    and even if we come home empty handed
    well still have our stories
    of battle scars, pirate ships and wounded hearts,
    broken bones, and all the best of friendships

    and when this hourglass
    has filtered out
    its final grain of sand
    i raise my glass to the memories we had
    this is my wish
    this is my wish
    im takin back
    im takin them all back
