Drive
I've been cosplaying as a nineties kid
Was that something that we all did
Hear the eighties rocked
That is what's been said
As they're dreaming of it in bed
Were they a symbol of excess
Should I ask for nothing less
Nostalgia for a time
I never experienced
My hatred is electric
Yet I long for the aesthetic
Breaking my own promise
To not become my parents
Life stopped before I was born
Missed out on a sixty-four
I've seen the playbacks
Isn't it sad
A taste makes me desperate for more
Through the web I've seen
Function over sheen
Oh the things people will believe
An ungrateful boy
Forgetting all his toys
Calls it all a ploy
Says it's freedom or success
He should demand a little less
Nostalgic for a time
He never experienced
Longing for the pleasure
But thinks himself too clever
Ignorant to the letter
That we work best together
Life stopped before I was born
Missed out on a sixty-four
I've seen the playbacks
Isn't it sad
A taste makes me desperate for more
Maybe I should try
To look around
I can't satisfy
It's been disallowed
Life stopped before I was born
Missed out on a sixty-four
I've seen the playbacks
Isn't it sad
A taste makes me desperate for more
Life stopped before I was born
Missed out on a sixty-four
I've seen the playbacks
Isn't it sad
A taste makes me desperate for more
Was that something that we all did
Hear the eighties rocked
That is what's been said
As they're dreaming of it in bed
Were they a symbol of excess
Should I ask for nothing less
Nostalgia for a time
I never experienced
My hatred is electric
Yet I long for the aesthetic
Breaking my own promise
To not become my parents
Life stopped before I was born
Missed out on a sixty-four
I've seen the playbacks
Isn't it sad
A taste makes me desperate for more
Through the web I've seen
Function over sheen
Oh the things people will believe
An ungrateful boy
Forgetting all his toys
Calls it all a ploy
Says it's freedom or success
He should demand a little less
Nostalgic for a time
He never experienced
Longing for the pleasure
But thinks himself too clever
Ignorant to the letter
That we work best together
Life stopped before I was born
Missed out on a sixty-four
I've seen the playbacks
Isn't it sad
A taste makes me desperate for more
Maybe I should try
To look around
I can't satisfy
It's been disallowed
Life stopped before I was born
Missed out on a sixty-four
I've seen the playbacks
Isn't it sad
A taste makes me desperate for more
Life stopped before I was born
Missed out on a sixty-four
I've seen the playbacks
Isn't it sad
A taste makes me desperate for more
