About This Track

'VHS' by mxmtoon is a 2024 alternative track from the album 'liminal space'. The lyrics cast a tense, haunted look at ageing and resemblance, with a speaker fixated on a vanishing self, a mirrored double, and the suspicion of inherited traits, asking if the person now in view is truly them. There is also a sense of fear around family loss, alongside a steady, accusatory feeling of time moving too quickly. The song turns domestic imagery into something uncanny, and ends with an unfinished edge of dread, like a tape that will not quite stop.

"VHS" is a track by mxmtoon, from the album liminal space, released 1st November 2024. The track is 2:53 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 20 articles about mxmtoon.

Lyrics

VHS

Are you scared you lost a daughter?
Every moment I get older
Looking through your eyes and I
See the girl I left behind
Is it really me in the mirror?
My lines keep digging deeper
Hands are looking more like yours
Feel our bodies keeping score

You know
How fast life goes
You got it all
On video

Pieces of myself
Littered round the world
Watching VHS
I'm a younger girl

Sitting by my side
Smile on your face
It's so bittersweet
I'll be you one day
I'll be you one day

Wonder how I got so bitter
I used to be so sweet
Sometimes I really miss her
The kid I used to be

You know
How fast life goes
You got it all
On video

Pieces of myself
Littered round the world
Watching VHS
I'm a younger girl

Sitting by my side
Smile on your face
It's so bittersweet
I'll be you one day
I'll be you one day
