1994

(album: worm food - 2022)

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 trying to love the person I was when I was born
Hating on a kid doesn't serve me anymore
Sylvanians making stories on the floor
And my mom 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 grown up, I feel like I'm stuck
But I don't wanna catch up right now

I'm trying to 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 grown 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, won't slow back down
Blame the child in a daisy crown
