Yesterday Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Run
But don't be scared to look behind
Stop
Don't wait too long, make up your mind
[Chorus 1]
The end is almost here
The sky, the air, so nice and clear
The sound of your decay
And the ringing in the air is the sweet debris of yesterday
[Verse 2]
There
Now that you know it's not so bad
See
The good things soon flow proximate
[Chorus 2]
So if you try to enhance
We don't deserve another chance
Just laugh along the way
And kiss your ass goodbye with a shadow dream of yesterday
[Bridge]
Yesterday, the good old days
Yesterday, the way we used to play
Yesterday, it just got worse and worse
Yesterday, the future's been rehearsed
Run
But don't be scared to look behind
Stop
Don't wait too long, make up your mind
[Chorus 1]
The end is almost here
The sky, the air, so nice and clear
The sound of your decay
And the ringing in the air is the sweet debris of yesterday
[Verse 2]
There
Now that you know it's not so bad
See
The good things soon flow proximate
[Chorus 2]
So if you try to enhance
We don't deserve another chance
Just laugh along the way
And kiss your ass goodbye with a shadow dream of yesterday
[Bridge]
Yesterday, the good old days
Yesterday, the way we used to play
Yesterday, it just got worse and worse
Yesterday, the future's been rehearsed
[Verse 1]
Run
But don't be scared to look behind
Stop
Don't wait too long, make up your mind
[Chorus 1]
The end is almost here
The sky, the air, so nice and clear
The sound of your decay
And the ringing in the air is the sweet debris of yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday
Run
But don't be scared to look behind
Stop
Don't wait too long, make up your mind
[Chorus 1]
The end is almost here
The sky, the air, so nice and clear
The sound of your decay
And the ringing in the air is the sweet debris of yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday
About
Genius Annotation
Brett Gurewitz has cited that his favorite musicians are The Beatles
It is quite possible that they were the inspiration behind this song. The album does begin to move in a poppy direction at this point.
