Gold Mind Squad Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Came to be the first day of the rest of my life
It's a lot of time spent, all the places we went
And knowing what's behind all the letters I sent
It's a long time going
Long time running
Long time knowing
They said it might rain toay
I'm moving on, further from you
It has to be this way
I'm moving on, further fom you
Last time that I said goodbye,
I noticed something different with the look in your eyes
We both seemed to know without saying a word
That the stage was set for the page to be turned
It's a long time going
Long time running
Long time knowing
They said it might rain toay
I'm moving on, further from you
It has to be this way
I'm moving on, further fom you

Last time that I said goodbye,
The most recent instance of me leaving was pivotal
Came to be the first day of the rest of my life
It marked a new beginning for me
It's a lot of time spent, all the places we went
We were together for a considerable duration during which we shared many experiences
And knowing what's behind all the letters I sent
I am aware of the intentions behind each of the letters I wrote to you
It's a long time going
I have been in this situation for a prolonged period
Long time running
It has been a long journey for me
Long time knowing
I have known for a considerable time that we have to part ways
They said it might rain today
The weather forecast suggests that it may rain
I'm moving on, further from you
I am making progress in distancing myself from you
It has to be this way
This is the only way forward for me
I'm moving on, further from you
I am continuing to distance myself from you
