Luca Underground - As You Were

I remember when you said time would never break you in
Confidence in speaking devoid of hesitation
Curiosity took precedent

Are you as you were
When you knocked on the party door
Making everyone else uncomfortable with your solemn demeanor
Head to toe you dressed in black and you wouldn't ever take it back
Confused the hell out of everyone and left without a sound
Are you as you were when your former self was still around

I remember when you said you'd never become the rain
Little droplets falling just so they can wash themselves away
And evaporate into everything

Are you as you were back then
Even if you're not I think I still think of you a lot
Are you the same soul that I knew when I knew you back then
Are you the same one I knew back in 2010
Are you as you were back then

A little too much philosophy and somewhere along the way
You lost yourself and found a self and threw another self away
Combine an open mind with self doubt

Oh I wish I could go back and tell her
Not to listen to what people tell her
And maybe then instead Id tell her
That everything she'll ever need she's already got

And I know you're in the basement cellar
Trapped among the webs and spiders
But I promise for it you'll be better
When resurrected you'll live stronger
Someday you'll be someone you admire
When it's over it takes you higher

But still I've gotta ask
Are you as you were in the picture we took by the docks
Are you as you were in the same way that's a paradox
Ain't it funny how life will work that way
(Guess that's just the price we must pay)

Now I'm not sure what to think
I'll excavate remains to dig up anything from the past because I'm Hanging by a thread
All I want is to be woven in
Completely woven into the material of you
Is this all in my head
Watch out for constructs everywhere my friend
Are you as you were in the same way you've always been
Are you as you were in the same way you've always been
Are you as you were in the same way you've always been
