Memories

The one thing people tend to realise at moments like this is that they’ve wasted a lot of time.
It’s not just what they did with their time. It’s not just that they spent too much time working or compulsively checking emails. They regret what they cared about.
We manage to never really connect with the present moment and find fulfilment there because we are continually hoping to become happy in the future. And the future never arrives.
Even when we think we’re in the present moment, we’re in very subtle ways always looking over our shoulder, anticipating what’s coming next. We’re always solving a problem. And it’s possible to simply drop your problem, if only for a moment and enjoy whatever is true of your life in the present.

The not so late nights
Trying our luck on the slot machines
The early morning drives out
Meant everything to me
Please give me back the years we had
I can't hold back the tears I've had
Don't leave me for the last time
I'm here just like the first time
Tears in out eyes
Laughing too much at the diner scenes
And all the times we spent
Listening to Anthology
Please give me back the years we had
I can't hold back the tears I've had
Don't leave me for the last time
I'm here just like the first time
I'm lost
I'm lost
I'm lost without you
Please give me back the years we had
I can't hold back the tears I've had
Don't leave me for the last time
I'm here just like the first time

Midnight Sky

To the sunsets, to the memories, to the regrets, Los Angeles
(Monologue)
When I was younger
I never knew there a whole world outside of here
There's oceans, there's mountains
There's everything here
And sometimes life just gets hard and you've gotta move on
Sometimes things change
Sometimes people change
We drove the 405 underneath the midnight sky
with the windows down, that 80s sound, a look of wonder in your eyes
I said “you’ll never leave, you’ll never leave this place behind
Please don’t go anywhere, go anywhere tonight”
When summer’s gone do we leave our lives behind?
Do you love the feeling or the person in your eyes?
To the sunsets, to the memories, to the regrets, Los Angeles
To the sunsets, to the memories, to the regrets, Los Angeles
We took an ocean drive out toward the midnight sky.
With the headlights out; the music loud. The summer made us feel alive
You said “I’ve gotta leave, I’ve got to leave this place tonight
We can go anywhere, go anywhere we like”
When summer’s gone do we leave our lives behind?
Do you love the feeling or the person in your eyes?
To the sunsets, to the memories, to the regrets, Los Angeles
To the sunsets, to the memories, to the regrets, Los Angeles
I can't stay here
This place, I can't die here
Looking at same street, the same faces, the same skies
Let's run away together, no one will ever know
Just you and I

Can we just go back to the start
Can we just go back where it fell apart
And I was just as lost as everyone else
And I noticed you there in the rain
In the storm we were running from
We were shy kids in a quiet town
In a world too small to hold us down
Can we just go back to the start
Can we just fall back fix these broken hearts
And I was just as lost as everyone else
And I noticed you there in the rain
In the storm we were running from
We were shy kids in a quiet town
In a world too small to hold us down
Monologue
You see here kids, you've gotta just go for it
Don't think about what came after or what came before
You've just gotta bend your knees, take a deep breath and jump
And you might think, what if I fall?
Well what if you don't?
What if you fly?
We were shy kids in a quiet town
In a world too small to hold us down

Days Go By

And days go by
And now becomes then and the memories fade in time
Took a walk in the dark when the light shines bright
On the only place that we could go and never lose our minds
We got old
It got tough
There's no fight in me
There's a song in our hearts that we gotta sing
There's an old road
Let's get lost there
I can't think of anything better
And days go by (and I still miss you)
And now becomes then but the memories are always mine
Close my eyes in the night
Felt the rain fall down
It's the only thing that I can do to make me feel alive
We got old
It got tough
There's no fight in me
There's a song in our hearts that we gotta sing
There's an old road
Let's get lost there
I can't think of anything better
We got old
It got tough
There's no fight in me
There's a song in our hearts that we gotta sing
There's an old road
Let's get lost there
I can't think of anything better
And days go by

Golden Haze
03:07
|

There's cherished memories lost to the skyline
Teenage years fade in the glow of the moonlight
We start again we break and bend
Over again we fall and mend
Those rainy days spent out on the coastline
A summer haze we thought would last for a lifetime
We start again we break and bend
Over again we fall and mend
Can we seek a place to call our own
When we move on from our childhood homes
Rusted windows and picture frames
A quiet place where my heart can stay
Leave the bruises and the photographs
The buried toys guns in the seasons passed
Can we find a place to call our own
Can we seek a place to call our own
When we move on from our childhood homes
Rusted windows and picture frames
A quiet place where my heart can stay
Leave the bruises and the photographs
The buried toys guns in the seasons passed
We start again we break and bend
Over again we fall and mend

Summer Eyes
03:22
|

You found me in a void that day
Asking are you ever gonna come my way?
And maybe that's what I'll do
Because I'm never gonna trust myself
Never good enough for someone made like you
You're leaving me breathless as I try to dissemble
An honest addiction is the gun at my temple
Well I dont know where we're going
I don't really care at all
I could fall in love with those summer eyes
And I know you want this
I know you do
There's a poison in your kiss
That leaves me dying here in front of you

Kyoto (feat. Oblique)
03:51

Catching the last train to Kyoto
Take in the sunsets as the days go
We're taking chances in the arcades
Living in the best age and you're all I ever wanted
They offered it all but I don't want it
They offered it all but I don't want it
Let's leave it all behind tonight
Take to a sky that's drenched in starlight
Catching the last train to Kyoto
The city sings, the mountains echo
We're trading glances as we both sway
Dreaming as the years fade
You're all I've ever wanted
They offered it all but I don't want it
They offered it all but I don't want it
Let's leave it all behind tonight
Take to a sky that's drenched in starlight
Let's leave it all behind tonight
Take to a sky that's drenched in starlight
You're all I've ever wanted
You're all I've ever wanted

Last Sundown

Another drive home
Another day done
Another night of aimless thinking
And I've been smoking instead of talking
Thanks to years of endless screening
Getting back to the sheets that we never made
And now I'm here but you're not there again
And through it all
And what she said to me
We're living a lie
Back to the start again
Another walk home
Another week done
Another night of heavy drinking
And I've been sleeping on this bedroom floor
Caught up but barely keeping
Sinking deeper in the hole that we dug back then
I'm here but you're not there again
And through it all
And what she said to me
We're living a lie
Back to the start again
And hung up on what it did to me
And for the last time I'll write this off
I'll write this off again
Hung up on you again
You destroyed the best of me
And through it all
And what she said to me
We're living a lie
Back to the start again
You wore me out
And through it all
And what she said to me
We're living a lie
Back to the start again
