Dark Old Days

We were brave, we'd disappear

For days, or was it years?

Escaping the cold wind of Coney Island

I caught the last train with the last ghosts

In your pearls, in your drugstore diamonds

And those blue eyes hidden

And my heart when I find them

I'm still waking up to the dark old days

Yeah, I'm still living up to the dark old days

The dark old days

We were sainted and we were haunted

You were everything that I'd ever wanted

Yeah, we had the time to set a watch to

And I lost track, now look where I slept through

And I thought we both knew

The same devils, the same shadows

The same black metal

And the boys have been drinking

The streets are singing

November's dead neon's got my ears ringing

And I'm still waking up to the dark old days

Yeah, I'm still living up to the dark old days

And I hope you fall down laughing

The dark old days
