These Days Are Gone
Moonbootica Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't burn the bridges behind you
And take all the chances around you
Oh no, every step you take, all the things you hate, every move that aches
Oh no, every fault you make, every heart you break
It's you, but you are running, running away

These are the things that we've done
So many things that are gone

These are the things that we've done
So many things, so many things
These days are gone
A new life has begun
Feel ready to start
Don't break my heart
Don't break my heart

Don't burn the bridges behind you
And take all the chances around you
Oh no, we built a house and burned it down
We've lost our friends and left the town
What we do shapes what we say
We will never be the same
We are running, running away

These are the things that we've done
So many things that are gone
These are the things that we've done
So many things
These days are gone
A new life has begun
Feel ready to start
You'll break my heart (these days are gone)

They are gone

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Moonbootica's song These Days Are Gone can be interpreted as a call to self-reflection and taking responsibility for one's actions. The opening lines urge the listener to not burn bridges and take the chances around them, implying that the singer has learned from past mistakes and urges others to do the same. The chorus, "These are the things that we've done, so many things that are gone" reinforces the idea that it’s important to acknowledge the past and move on from regret, with "these days are gone, a new life has begun" suggesting that the singer has moved on from past mistakes and is ready to start fresh, and the line "Don't break my heart" emphasizing the importance of learning from past mistakes and not repeating them.

The verses go further to explain the consequences of actions in the past, including burning bridges and losing friends as a result of choices. The line "what we do shapes what we say" reinforces the idea that actions matter and have consequences. The final lines of the song, "you'll break my heart, they are gone" suggest that the singer has moved on and embraced the new chapter of their life, but urges others to do the same before it's too late.
