The Best of Your Days

I spent the best of my days
Seeking out empty smiles and praise 
Just someone assuring me 
I could be like the guys on the screens 

You could spend the rest of your days 
Trying to tell yourself it's just another phase 
But the scars under your sleeve 
Say something else entirely 

We could spend our golden days 
Looking back on things we could have changed 
But what good is looking back to the past 
When time is already coming up fast
