1996

Blue eyes and so small
I came into this world with nothing at all
I came into this world like we all do
Kicking and screaming and covered in goo

It's 1996
Here's a stream of flix
Space Jam and Trainspotting
Sling Blade Mission Impossible

My earliest memory I'm a few months old
Sitting in a spaceship trying to roll
Down the hall to where my sister is playing
I can still see the wallpaper of the kitchen ceiling

I loved animals I still do
I had enough teddy's to build a zoo
I laughed I sang I even drew
Now I write songs about being blue

I watch myself in old tapes
A few years old on Christmas Day
Who is that boy with the smile on his face
Was that really me or did he fade away

Blue eyes and so small
I came into this world with nothing at all
I came into this world like we all do
Kicking and screaming and covered in goo

My brothers GameBoy I stole from his room
I used to play Pokemon and collect the cards too
Bulbasaur Ekans Koffing Gloom
My sister liked Blastoise and Mewtwo

Simple times
Simple days
Bunk beds staying up late
Watching Toy Story or a Bugs Life
On a tape you had to rewind

Now we're all in our twenties
We don't really talk we're more like enemies
But we had a tree house called the guinea pig club
Where we played for hours in the sun

Blue eyes and so small
I came into this world with nothing at all
I came into this world like we all do
Kicking and screaming and covered in goo

And I'll leave this world like we all do
Alone and afraid like a baby born new
Alone and afraid that's nothing new
1996 I'm dreaming of you
