Lyrics
Used to work with my granny Her store sold retro electronics Wonder why anyone ever bought 'em Used to say it's all in the optics Nowadays everything's on quantum Young people register to a socket People used to have boxes with risings Scream to play something called new horizon I was claimed by enticement Used to help her fix things with excitement Told her this stuff was just decent But she could see that I liked it She started to show me music Electronic, rock, pop, and some rap She told me people used to do it Said I wanna do something like that Before I knew, the feeling had grassed Days spent dreaming I could travel back To live in the twenties when things were good Have some fresh food cheaper [?] Didn't have to use public transport Back then you could see a doctor sh*t you could even go to college These visions all I could ponder Until she said to me, Conor Life is too short to not be in the now Someday you'll feel the same for today And you won't wonder the why's and the how's It's good to appreciate for the past If it expands your view of today Making memories that last That is the you that will never fade I often spend my present fixated on the past Finding beauty in disconnects 'cause nothing ever lasts And every time I find that my mind is travelling back I try to focus on the now before my mind can dis-attach Floating in the orbit of a sun that shadows cast Light hitting my eyes but its shine in the past Maybe things are beautiful just the way they are Maybe no matter the era we're stuck on a dying star I often spend my present fixated on the past Finding beauty in disconnects 'cause nothing ever lasts And every time I find that my mind is travelling back I try to focus on the now before my mind can dis-attach Floating in the orbit of a sun that shadows cast Light hitting my eyes but its shine in the past Maybe things are beautiful just the way they are Maybe no matter the era we're stuck on a dying star Death stars speak beneath my feet remains the past Not absolute but obsolete endangered fads Running away from days of turning gears What turned your fears propelled and I see you Sifting through the garbage making the workers here feel jealous And I don't get it Stop motion stops the motion Pen and paper damns the lasers what's the motive You seek a zest when I [?] I hear scratches on the record There's a path that we had left and it seems I'm glad we left it All my all my files lost list you in your thoughts wish They used to hang glass over the eyes so they could see Primitive predicaments Blemish with the penmanship But pimp a thousand rhythms crawling through my algorithms but What do I know I'm just a forward thinker Stuck at the stoplight you had to flip that morbid blinker We could forgo every pain we felt Fan the flame or stay and melt The castle only moves when all the magic disappears Always spend my present fixated on the past past Always spend my present fixated on the past past Always spend my present fixated on the past past Fixated on the past past Fixated on the past Always spend my present fixated on the past past Always spend my present fixated on the past past Always spend my present fixated on the past past Fixated on the past past Fixated on the-
