[Verse 1:]
Honest where I start from
I try and impart my wisdom
A combination of truth and fear
That’s the way it’s always been
My father and his before him
At times we hurt the …
[Verse 1]
Oh, pity me
I’m so alone and so blue
My friends have all gone away
Their friendliness too
[Pre-Chorus]
It was I on my own
With no need to belong
And I wanted to die
That’s when …
[Verse 1]
Got some money, got some cash
I’m rich and now I’m sad
And I wonder if I’m sad about the money that I have
Got some boats on my plane
At the hotel …
[Intro]
Yeah
Polishin’ a goddamn sword, you know what I’m sayin’?
Polishin’ a sword (Uh, uh, uh, uh)
Concrete Family, Concrete Industries, Concrete Boys up, always, never down
(And this beat from Cash, not from …
When the only sound in the empty street
Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet
That belong to a lonesome cop
I open shop
When the moon so long has been gazing down
On …
We were young and drinking in the park
There was nowhere else to go
And you said you always had my back
Oh but how were we to know 19
That these are the days that bind you together, forever
And these little things define you forever, forever 20
All this bad blood here, won’t you let it dry?
It’s been cold for years, won’t you let it lie? 21
If we’re only ever looking back
We will drive ourselves insane 22
As the friendship goes resentment grows
We will walk our different ways 23
But those are the days that bind us together, forever
And those little things define us forever, forever
All this bad blood here, won’t you let it dry?
It’s been cold for years, won’t you let it lie?
And I don’t wanna hear about the bad blood anymore
I don’t wanna hear you talk about it anymore
I don’t wanna hear about the bad blood anymore
I don’t wanna hear you talk about it anymore 24
All this bad blood here, won’t you let it dry?
It’s been cold for years, won’t you let it lie?
Bastille is recalling his memories of hanging out with a friend in the park and the promise that the friend made that he or she would always be there for him but it seems that things have gone completely different and that promise is one that has not come to fruition.
Bastille sings that it is such days when promises are made and days on which little things, though little are done that become meaningful and memorable to people. He could also be meaning that they have let themselves be defined by the negative act that happened between them.
Bastille shows that something negative happened between the two of them that caused a major rift, something which even time has not managed to heal and his friend still holds a grudge, which Bastille is asking why the friend cannot let it go or just forget about it.
Bastille tells his friend that the past belongs to the past, at one point he and his friend have to accept that what happened, happened and there is now way to undo it no matter how hard they try to.
His talks of the point where they are and because of their own unwillingness to let the grudge go, it is just pulling them further apart towards real enmity and they will each go their own ways.
Bastille is saying that he has had enough of this grudge that they share, on his part he doesn’t want to be a party to the growing resentment or aid it in its growth.
