There was smoke in the air, When he came around and saw
He was really alone
Memories look like blood in the water, Sweet and ugly pain
Just like confetti in the rain
He was known for his bedside manner
He wanted to believe That people only hear what they see
He had a good time being the bad guy
He didn't wanna understand why That old song makes him cry
I remember when it felt like We were walking with God
Little heaven when the sun goes down
Walking hand in hand down On the promenade
He was alone in a dark room, Overlooking the mall
With a gun in his hand and no one to call
He was waiting for a reason to fade and run
Just like photos in a window That turn blue in the sun
People used to call it a breakdown
Now we medicate to make it go away
People used to call it a mid-life crisis
He just sits there, looks at pictures of himself
From way back in the day
Remember when it felt like We were walking with God
Getting stupid in a stolen car
Making love in the garage Behind the promenade
I think I need to slow down
I think I need to slow my roll
I need to put the gun down
I feel so lost, I feel so out of control
I broke myself in pieces to make my name
I broke those people dumb enough to get in my way
Now I look in the mirror and I can't see me
How can you swallow the world and still be hungry?
Remember when it felt like We were walking with God
Holding hands with my dad and my mom
Walking in the light to see you sitting
On the promenade
Remember when it felt like We were walking with God
Remember when it felt like We were walking with God
Remember, remember, remember when it felt like we were walking with God
