Where had the days gone
when I had said
all I could without fear?
when I had it all figured out
and thought life is as
simple as it would?

Where had the days gone
when all I did was dream
without thinking of the cost?
when I have found my soul
and kept what I now lost?

Where had the days gone
when I believed with all
my heart in the things
I could do?
when my thoughts were
nothing but of wonder and
only wonder would ensue?

Where had the days gone
I wish to know along with
the growing pains
stretching my bones
If there was something I kept
and something I didn't let go of
—it's the question of where
had the days gone when I did
what mattered without thinking
of the people who won't
see of hear it

Where had they all gone
now that I've suffered enough
just to watch the lamp I lit
flicker away to nothing
—I spent days wondering—
where had the days gone
back when I wasn't afraid
of fully living?
