Harry was four when he missed the boat
They tied apples and pears
To his satchel
His mother was clean but his dad was sideways
[Chorus]
And theyâve seen better days
But sometimes they slowly die, and ya
You celebrate their lives
By walking on their graves
Theyâve seen better days
So weak that they slowly die, and ya
You throw them in their chambers
So their souls can melt away
Watch out Leena, youâre making a mess
You have dealed him a blow
To his face
His shoes got wet and his hands are shaking
I see well
How do you too
Put right back the pieces of us
Seed me out to the groundâ¦
And theyâve seen better days
But sometimes they slowly die, and ya
You celebrate their lives
By walking on their graves
Theyâve seen better days
So weak that they slowly die, and ya
You throw them in their chambers
So their souls can melt away
(We all have to tryâ¦)
We have to try (we have to, we have to)
(We all have to tryâ¦)
We have to try (we have to, we have to)
(We all have to tryâ¦)
We have to try (we have to, we have to)
(We all have to tryâ¦)
We have to try (we have to, we have to)
[Music]
And theyâve seen better days
But sometimes they slowly die, and ya
You celebrate their lives
By walking on their graves
And theyâve seen better days
So weak that they slowly die, and ya
You throw them in their chambers
So their souls can melt away
And theyâve seen better days
White collars they slowly die, and ya
You celebrate their lives
By givinâ it to someone younger
And theyâve seen better days
So weak that they slowly die, and ya
You throw them in their chambers
So their souls can melt away
Woahâ¦
