Fastbacks · Other Songs - Fastbacks
Some of the things that I'd left behind
Then I saw what I never had discovered
Days gone by that can never be recovered
Lost for seven days now they're lost forever now
Seven days ago I lost my mind
Seven more days spent to rewind
Seven days lost in my mind
Years gone by I've changed my mind
Lost for seven days now they're lost forever now
