Once We A5Realized We Were Living In F5Hell

Verse 2
C5In The Beginning It Was All So Exciting
When We A5Still Had So Much Left To F5Learn
We'd C5Not Yet Been Jaded, Our Senses Unfaded
When We A5Still Had Hope Left For The F5World
Still Fairly UnC5familiar With Tragedy And G5Armed With A Propensity
For A5Making The Best Out Of F5Bad
But Our Dispositions C5Far More Dismal Nowadays
BeG5cause Somewhere Along The Way
We A5Forgot About All The Good Times That We've F5Had
