Silas Armstrong - Grounded Lyrics

I knew you since the age of 4
I still remember knocking at your door
Sleepovers and scary movies
Video games and making music

Before the duelling drummers
Became a band of brothers
Lennon to my McCartney
Became dearly departed
I still don't know what happened when you
Jumped right off the wagon
We were going somewhere
And I can still hear the sound
It was almost ours I swear
Our feet would never touch the ground
But we got grounded

Two years above you came to me
How different it all could've been us brothers
To one another
Rhythm section, best of friends
More for the life, let's not pretend
Remember, Ibiza

After the biggest break up
We both got pretty shaken
It changed us both forever
But we still held on together
Then it all turned south around the end
Too much drink and drugs and no earplugs and
Driving round the bend
We were going somewhere
And I can still hear the sound
It was almost ours I swear
We'd never touch the ground
Until it all compounded

An acquired taste a right one off
You drove a car and we hit it off
You put up with
So much of our shit
For years and years we shared the tours
You rode the road, we'd tread the boards
I miss it
Just want a road trip

Back before the sickness
So much that we witnessed
Since our teens we joined forces
We backed the same old horses
Our great enabler, we couldn't have done
Any of it without you
We were going somewhere
And I can still hear the sound
It was almost ours I swear
Just waiting to be found
We were surrounded

The greatest man who ever lived
A life cut short oh what I'd give to see you
Reform the League too
Those college days and crazy knights
All so Peachy and so Damn Sly
The best days
Rest in peace Dave

After I got the phone call
Began the biggest pitfall
We all came down together
And it changed us all forever
I often wonder where we'd be if you had come back home
We were going somewhere
And I can still hear the sound
It was almost ours I swear
You will always wear the crown
You will always wear the crown"
