I Miss Those Days Lyrics

Yeah, we talk about getting older
But there's so much we haven't done yet
Some things, I'm not here, I don't get dressed
And I cursed my bedroom but I left it all alone
'Cause all this time I'm runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway, gone

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And everyone is changing
And the storefront's rearranging
I picked up a quarter and I just saw my face
But it's all coming back now
Like the feeling isn't over
Hey, I know I was lost but I miss those days

[Chorus]
I said la-la-la-la-la-la-lost, but I miss those days
Well I'm talking, la-la-la-la-la-la-lost, but I miss those days
Yeah!

Those days when I'd sit on my sister's rooftop
Watching our city burn into the night
I'm not sure that we were meant to survive
I was sixteen in a van driving myself to Florida
Part of me never left that seat 'cause
Nights that we could stand up before a dream

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Well everyone is changing
And the storefronts carry weight now
And I'm sorry that you saw me when I lost my way
But it's all coming back, yeah
Like the feeling isn't over
Hey, I know I was lost but I miss those days

[Chorus]
I said la-la-la-la-la-la-lost, but I miss those days
Well I'm talking, la-la-la-la-la-la-lost, but I miss those days

[Bridge]
It feels like everyone is changing
And the storefront's rearranging
I picked up a quarter and I just saw my face
But it's all coming back now
Like the feeling isn't over
Hey, I know I was lost but I miss those days
I know I was lost but I miss those, come on
Hey, I know I was lost but I miss those days

[Chorus]
I said la-la-la-la-la-la-lost, but I miss those days
Well I'm talking, la-la-la-la-la-la-lost, but I miss those days
Yeah
I said la-la-la-la-la-la-lost, but I miss those days
Well I'm talking, la-la-la-la-la-la-lost, but I miss those days
La-la-la-la-la-la-lost, but I miss those days
La-la-la-la-la-la-lost, but I miss those days
La-la-la-la-la-la-lost, but I miss those days

Jack explained the meaning of this song on Twitter: "It’s about how in the seemingly lowest points of you’re life, it’s kinda the best. You know, you’ve got no money, you’re driving in an old van, no one’s coming to the shows, no direction, no one gives a shit, but those were kinda the days. Some of those rough days when you were really struggling are kinda the best, as lost as you are."
