The Same Old Wasted Wonderful World

I used to feel alive
Parading around the world
Where did all the moments go?
I tried to find them, but I just don't know

Crash-landed long ago
When I was in some demand
I should have paid attention more
Instead of waking up on someone's floor

I'm so sick of living the nostalgia down
I just want to separate the past from now
Stay in present tense somehow

Things change, time finds away
To take what we used to have
The people that we lost and loved
And adoration undeserving of

Black matter calls us all
Now closer with every day
The family we now define
Is all we have until the end of time

We're so psyched to put on the nostalgia crown
We can't wait to dig into the here and now
Stay in present tense somehow

It's the same old wasted wonderful world
So delightly raging out of control
In a flash, I find myself on the verge
But I'm coming out of it, coming out of it now
Turning it around lately somehow

It's the same old wasted wonderful world
An expanse of changes now taking hold
'Cause we long to give them whom they deserve
No, we're never gonna stop, never gonna quit now
Jettisoning what's keeping us down
It's sobering that we figured it out

It's the same old wasted wonderful world
It's the same old wasted wonderful world
We're dying
We're still dying to know who we are
