What Happened Lyrics

What happened to the world we grew up in

A bedlam of color and a rainbow of sound.

Her tongue was a marvel that was never held

When the sound of a song can take ya back to memories that have lapsed

Let the past sink into the sediment of time

Washed over in the riverbed

I know it was happier then, before we knew everything about how the world really is

What happened what happened to the world that we grew up in

What happened what happened to the world that we grew up in

What happened what happened to the world that we grew up in

What happened what happened to the world that we grew up in

What happened what happened to the world that we grew up in

Back in the day when we would sit on an old porch swing

Dreaming about where it is that we are now

Everyone living in an envelope of sound

Where we come from and where were gonna go

It's all well ever know

Staring at an old photo album

The feeling of home trying to hold these tears back

What's another hour when you can just let it pass

Each drip of candle wax

What happened what happened to the world that we grew up in

What happened what happened to the world that we grew up in

I guess sometimes when things go away you learn to appreciate

What it really is and that's the hardest part of life

As she walked through the field with a television where her head used to be

And a crow on each fence post

Waiting for the last battle in the minds of men to finally end

None of their thoughts were their own anymore

I know it was happier then
