lyrics

Dwelling on the past
A film on repeat
Clouding my thoughts
With what could have been

Internalised fears
Failures of old
Missed chances
Swallowing me whole

Ingrained in my head
That age is a measure
Of what is tangible
The wants and the needs

And I want them
And I need them
But I don't even know why
No matter how much I try

Growing discontent
Continues to thrive
Sowing envy
And resentment

I become ripe
With insecurities
That continue to fester
And bloom

Time moves ever forward
And I'm standing still

Dwelling on the past
A film on repeat
Clouding my thoughts
With what could have been

Internalised fears
Failures of old
Missed chances
Swallowing me whole

Ingrained in my head
Is a memorandum
An apparition
Forever haunting me.
