Mike V And The Rats - The Days lyrics
in punk rock music
when I was 14 years old
at that time it just
seemed it went hand and hand
I mean the spirit of both
things were expression and individuality
for the first time of my life
I knew who I was
and knew what I wanted to do
with myself
and I knew
I knew I wouldn't be looking back
We hit the streets
born to run
not looking for trouble
just having fun
but around here it's against the law
to be young
around here your guilty by
suspicion
we meet out in abandoned
parking lots
under the street lights
after dark
armed with skateboards and
guitars
against gang fight and police states and
holy wars
these are the days
I remember being so inspiried
and empowered
and you know what
i still feel that way
the spirit still fills me
now that they see things have changed
for thier kids today
but I don't buy that at all
I think its about digging alittle deeper
and asking questions
I still believe that these are the days
these have always been the days
We meet out in the garage and
plug into amps
skate our ramps and listen
to the clash
hold onto the night and try to
make it last
the cars drive by going
nowhere fast
everyones down on
main street
got our skateboards at
our feet
were just talking trash
in the heat
these are the days you better
breath deep
these are the days
you're never to old
you're never to old
to be who you are
these are the days
breath deep
these are the days my friend
breath deep
these are the days you gotta
breath deep
these are the days
these are the days you better
breath deep
these are the days my friends
breath deep
these are the days you gotta
breath deep
these are the days
the days the days
