1994 Songtext
von Cavetown

I′m trying to forgive myself for things I didn't do
For words I didn′t say and things I didn't choose
Spending every day decomposing in my room
I'm not okay, but there′s nothing I can do

I′m tryna love the person I was when I was born
Hating on a kid doesn't serve me anymore
Sylvanians making stories on the floor
Mum and dad in love like it′s 1994

Say you're coming around
I need you lately, everything′s been getting me down
Yeah, the kids are growing up, I feel like I'm stuck
But I don′t wanna catch up right now


I'm tryna get a better sense of what I'm worth
′Cause I′ve been on the fence and in the dirt
Taking it easy
But I forgot I have a job and nothing ever stops so

Say you're coming around
I need you lately, everything′s been getting me down
Yeah, the kids are growing up, I feel like I'm stuck
But I don′t wanna catch up right now

Say you're coming around
I need you lately, everything′s been getting me down
I broke a glass on the floor, it was the last straw
It's like I woke up on the wrong side of town

Say you're coming around
I need you lately, everything′s been getting me down
I felt so much older than the kids ′round the corner
But I feel so much younger now
Overtook them all and slowed back down
Blamed a child in a daisy crown
