lyrics

memories from one's childhood, over time become distorted
every year at the family picnic, more and more contorted
mom and dad had five kids, my sister was the oldest
when she went to college, my schooling days didn't even exist

road trip in the blue station wagon, freshman orientation
I was so young, feel asleep and made a puddle underneath my seat

next in line was my oldest brother, I used to walk on his back
we sang under the Bridge, it was our favorite Chili Pepper track
two years Later another road trip in the blue station wagon
freshman orientation;

I was two years older, this time my pants stayed nice and dry



have we resorted to the remedy
, of living in a memory?

good ol' days of old
sometimes i get so worked up, a tear comes to my eye.
but I could never tell the truth, I just say it was dust.

I could never handle the truth,
so i put my faith in trust



memories from one's childhood, over time become distorted
your hopes and dreams and missions one by one aborted
mom and Dad had five kids, Nickle was in the middle

a nick-name his older siblings gave him before he was born
road trip in the blue station wagon, a production of the outsiders

he played Pony Boy, I was a kid he saved from the fire

next in line was PQ, we slept in bunk-beds like young children do

I always idolized him
to this day, I'm still sorry bout the time I pistol whipped you.
road trip in the blue station wagon, now it was soccer tournaments
At first I watched then i joined, 
but now all i do
is run and run and run and run and run 


I remember when, 
but what or why slipped my mind

Some times I get so worked up a tear comes to my eye

but i could never tell the truth, i just say it was dust

I could never handle the truth, so i put my faith in trust.

have we resorted to the remedy
 of living in a memory?

good ol' days of old.

sometimes i get so worked up, a tear comes to my eye

but I could never tell the truth, I just say it was dust.

I could never handle the truth, so i put my faith in trust.
