lyrics

How many times did the 60s end?
How many deaths did the music die?
How many ways did the moment lie?
Well none of that was real first time

Maybe nostalgia is wasted breathe
Maybe nostalgia is all we got left
How come all these white men scream about the good old days?
Makes me think the old days were never that good anyways

Now we've been chasing
Something that never happened
If everything was so great back then
How could we let this happen?
But I know we're never gonna be
Like those people in the picture
Yeah I know we're always gonna be
Stuck here in the future

False gods on a reunion tour
Stole all their moves from people who died poor
Might remind you of the first time you got high
Well none of that was real the first time

‘Cuz we've been chasing something that never happened
Everything was so great back then
Well I can hear the devil laughing
But I know we're never gonna be
Like those people in the picture
Yeah I know we're always gonna to be
Stuck here in the future
