Thinking back to my world when I was young
I was a boy simple and true
I always dreamed that my life would one day change
I was a boy who wanted to fool the world
Now I'm living fast and I'm not looking back
And my crime is overdriving
I've weeded
I've cheated
I know I've mistreated my mind
Now it's time for harder days
Harder days
Looking back on my painful youth
We were boys oh what could we do?
Broke knuckles bleed
In our eyes we hide the pain
We were the boys who sought to rule the world
Now I'm living fast and I'm not looking back
And my crime is overdriving
I've weeded
I've cheated
I know I've mistreated my mind
Now it's time for harder days
Harder days
We were young
Where did those lost years go?
We were young
Where did our innocence go?
A violent youth couldn't last forever
So where did those lost years go
Your violent youth couldn't last forever
Where did those lost years go?
Now I'm living fast and I'm not looking back
And my crime is overdriving
I've weeded
I've cheated
I know I've mistreated my mind
Now it's time for harder days
Harder days
