lyrics

I’m still searching for that scene
I dreamed of in the suburbs
Listening to records of a past already dead
Because where do you go when you want to be you
But you want to be you in a place which no longer exists?

I’m still searching for that scene

We dined on leftovers long out of date, hoping
the next meal would bring nourishment not more empty stomachs
But there’s only so many disappointing rooms taunting
Before you realise this is all you are gonna get

I’m still searching for that scene
Sending out messages in cut and paste,
With a self-addressed
Envelope
To rusting PO Boxes only answered
By the heroes we were told to never meet

Ahead of our time, we lived in the past
Unable to bridge the gap between the then and now
We were children hunting down an impossible dream
One from which they can’t seem to shake me quite awake.

I’m still searching for that scene
