These Days
Rudimental Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know you moved onto someone new
Hope life is beautiful
You were the light for me to find my truth
I just wanna say, thank you

Leaving to find my soul
Told her I had to go
And I know it ain't pretty
When our hearts get broke
Too young to feel this old
Watching us both turn cold
Oh, I know it ain't pretty
When two hearts get broke
Yeah, I know it ain't pretty
When two hearts get broke

I hope someday
We'll sit down together
And laugh with each other
About these days, these days
All our troubles
We'll lay to rest
And we'll wish we could come back to these days, these days

These days, these days

These days, these days

Three years of ups and downs
Nothing to show for it now
And I know it ain't pretty when the fire burns out
Calling me when I'm drunk, remind me of what I've done
And I know it ain't pretty when you're trying to move on, yeah

I hope someday
We'll sit down together
And laugh with each other
About these days, these days
All our troubles
We'll lay to rest
And we'll wish we could come back to these days, these days

Oh I know, I know
Oh I know, I know
Oh I know, I know
These days, these days
Oh I know, I know
Oh I know, I know
Oh I know, I know
To these days, these days

Cigarettes in the ash tray
Reminiscing on those past days
I thought you'd end up with my last name
But that changed
And I travelled around the world
Think where you living at now?
I heard you moved to Oxford
Got an apartment and settled down
And every once in a while
I start texting
Write a paragraph
But then I delete the message
Think 'bout you like a past time
I could cry you a river
Get you baptised or
I wasn't ready to act right
Used to always think I'd get you back, right
They say that things fall apart (yeah)
We were gonna move to Brooklyn
You were gonna study Art (oh no, oh)
Love is just a tool
To remind us who we are
And that we are not alone
When we're walking in the dark

I hope someday
We'll sit down together
And laugh with each other
About these days, these days
All our troubles
We'll lay to rest




And we'll wish we could come back to these days, these days
We'll wish we could come back to these days, these days (these days, these days, these days)

You had intentions of studying art


Love is just a tool
Love is a means


To remind us who we are
To help us remember our identity


And that we are not alone
To recognize that we have companionship


When we're walking in the dark
During times of difficulty


We'll wish we could come back to these days, these days (these days, these days, these days)
We will yearn to return to our previous experiences

It is time to repent!
It is time to BORN AGAIN!
It is time to reject all sins!
it is time to pick up your cross and follow the one who redeems your soul.
This world serves BAAL, why you want to do the same?
Are your eyes still blind, that you see not, all the idols of yours are showing off freemasonry hand signs?, neither do you see the clear signs of being inverted? Publicly known as being trans. All the idols of yours, you hear them as a deaf or actually taking a listen? Neither to you see, they all to be members of the same club โ€“ masonry?
GOD โ€“ the creator exist and god of this world exist also.
One redeems, the other deceives. Between these 2 a choosing is to make, WHOM SHALL WE SERVE?
Deuteronomy 30:19
I call heaven and earth to recordย thisย dayย againstย you, that I have set beforeย youย life and death, blessing and cursing: thereforeย chooseย life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
Joshua 24:15
And if it seem evil untoย youย to serve the LORD,ย chooseย youย thisย dayย whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.


To the lgbtq++++:
the lgbtq++ club/cult became to be, because of the masons depopulation agendas. search about them. Judge based on knowledge not based on feelings. feelings lie, humans understandings are false. opinions useless. TRUTH alone is what always stays mattering.



@BobaRitter

Pedro Miguel stay strong my brother, itโ€™s hard and I know what youโ€™re going through.
Try to do something just not to think about her.
For example Iโ€™m staying at work always longer and I come to work even hour earlier since we broke up.
Also, I do sports such as running or gym.
Also after 10 years of not playing I took my guitar now and started learning chords.
Iโ€™m doing everything just to make myself busy not to have time to think about her.
Meet new people, talk with them a lot.
I wish that youโ€™ll heal as soon as possible. Itโ€™s hard we all know that, but we grow in tough times.
Big love bro! Find a peace โœŒ๏ธ
