Void Contact

Lyrics

Verse 1
So many years ago, I dreamed a young man’s dreams
Impatient for the clock to give me what I’d need
So sure the future’d bring the greener grass to seed
I was so god-damned naïve
fickle hopes and aspirations
Change is constant as they all will tell you
non-committal inspirations
Get you nothing at all
Verse 2
And now it seems that I am repeating my old themes
wishing for the past to give me my old dreams
Losing weight or growing hair – just empty schemes
My youth – a long forgotten meme
Old age brings exasperation
and we see the past through filtered lenses
Despite all my perspiration
It’s never quite the same
Verse 3
Whether looking forward or living in the past
It all comes down to the fact that nothing really lasts
No matter what you try or illusions you might cast
At best you’re flying at half mast
It’s time we have this realization
That change is constant as they all will tell you
non-committal inspirations
Get you nothing at all
