Lyrics by James Tucker; Music by James Tucker and Thirteen Towers

lyrics

I just want it to mean something - this endless passing of finite and burdensome days. Wanting to feel something besides this loosening grip on our forgotten dreams. There was a time when we wanted for nothing more than to see shitty bands at some shitty bar. Is this all that we hoped for? Should have planned for something more

And if I hum along to familiar threads and melodies. Will it make the clocks pause before they strikes two thousand and three. Before it all went wrong. Before nostalgia became of our young nights and days. Now we’re too fucking old to keep acting this way.

I guess they were right all along. Idealism is nothing but naivety. I’m giving up on it all. Go find a job, get a mortgage and fuck this scene. There was a time when we wanted for nothing more than to start shitty bands and write shitty songs. Is this all that we hoped for? We could have done so much more.

I guess that they’ve won. I’m still uncertain. Who is they?
I thought I was raging along. Now I’m certain that I have become a cog in the machine.
