Remember when you came to mine
You finally let it all out
Sat on my bed, I was all packed up
Shared the pain with all your trust
Remember when we went out those nights
Stoke Newington never dissatisfies
I'll admit it's a blur for me too
Too much wine but we liked the live blues
I've tried to reenact what's been lost at the back of my mind
I've tried to readjust, ignore the reminder that it's all out of sight
But it all stopped when I lost my youth
I went back to the Hare & Hounds
Thought it'd get my feet back on the ground
But it just brought back the eyes of the demon sleeping inside
I once sang about the rain washing it out
That fantasy that never lasts
I left it all by my front door when I left that dodgy London road
I let it slip off my fingers all the lost love I never gave
In fear of dragging you down to my corner of hell
I've tried to reenact what's been lost at the back of my mind
I've tried to readjust, ignore the reminder that it's all out of sight
But it all stopped when I lost my youth
The only authentic truth
It stopped when I lost my youth
