Текст песни Damned Old Box - Hobbes

We had an old treehouse at the bottom of a hill
Me and all my two friends would climb up and chill
I mapped out the yard, with which monsters in what parts
Play imagine, 'till we starve, and come in from the larp
Lego guys, pencil draws, put a comic up every thursday
Watching out where the birds lay, didn't know bout cursing
Working about a dozen hobbies without any rest
'Till my mom decided theater was best
Then I grew up

Look where I am now, look where I am now
Let's go back, take me back

Committed to public school, eighth grade on, nerdy dude
Never rude, shy with girls, good with strangers, kept a cool
Ninth grade, High school, Minecraft on Youtube
My friends, and my crew, got a couple hundred views
Tenth came news, no glasses, new rules
Less acne, more hair gel, to my nerdy life I said farewell
I lusted girls that faired well, wasting my time parallel
Let that dig a need my heart, stuck like caramel
'Leventh wasn't so swell, divided like the liberty bell
Business diluting myself, stretching me thin, tryna excel
Love lost with burning smell, never dated no one that was an L
Stuck in my phone, I was in a shell, Grandpa fell
Senior year, God persevered, lovin' myself, Lovin' the tears
Found my peace, tuned my ear, soon enough college appeared
But if so much was so wrong with those early trying days
Why do I want to go back sometimes

Look where I am now, look where I am now
Let's go back, take me back
Look where I am now, (Look at me) look where I am now
(Take me back) Let's go back, take me back

Why do I want to go back
I kill my present by loving the past
Why do I want to go back
Rose tinted rearviews why won't it go black
