Name: 1999
Duration: P00H03M49S
Description: 1999 is about catching up with someone you haven't seen in a long time. There's a feeling of intimacy perforated by years apart. It seems like all of a sudden all the little changes and differences have added up to totally different people. Yeah, the years have done a bit of damage. But you can still remember back in the day...

lyrics

candid when you sing
you look like a flag hangin in the wind
Instantly recognizable but frayed
There will come a time
your fortunes revolve from this thing you’re in
Don’t wanna be a prisoner of escape

bummed out
by this big chip on your shoulder
Hands down
It’s so worth it to get over

who do you reach for when the party stops
and the record skips at the end
ready or not the sun comes up each morning
1999
we had some good times

I know its been hard to squeeze
what you wanted out of life
but rent’s been paid and suppers on the table
don’t believe in family,
those things only bring you strife
Dont believe that structure makes you stable

Bummed out
By that big chip on your shoulder
Hands down
it's so worth it to look over

Long hair whipping in the wind
And back to earth again
We’ll always be friends
Whatever happened?

Squeezed in the backseat of your dad’s crown vic with the cd skipping
My how the time flies feels more like slipping
1999
We had some good times
1999
