Remember how you lived
In a world without the internet
Imagine what it's like
To see the world going back in time
I'm sitting in front of the TV
And watching shows from the good old days
There's this feeling I can't describe
A need to belong to this time
Decades go by so really fast
But it's me who looks back at the past
To a time before my birth
Why can't we just spin back the earth?
Anemoia
A nostalgia we couldn't feel
Anemoia
If time travel could be real
(Maybe it's 'cause you wanna flee,
The world you're in doesn't make you happy)
People are calling on landline phones
To meet up and watch videotapes at home
There's something about this style
I wanna relive, I don't know why
It feels like I don't belong here now
I wanna travel no matter how
But not another place
You need to differ between time and space
Anemoia
A nostalgia we couldn't feel
Anemoia
If time travel could be real
(You just wanna live somewhere with more independence and a vintage flair)
Surrounding myself with old stuff
To feel my time just enough
So I trick myself into thinking
That I did reverse the clocks' ticking
Like a stranger in this kind of state
It's not a world I would create
I would reshape the universe
Back to the time I believe it deserved
(Maybe it's because you want to flee
The world you're in doesn't make you happy)
I believe it would deserve
(You just want to live somewhere with more independence and a vintage flair)
Anemoia
A nostalgia we couldn't feel
Anemoia
If time travel could be real
Can you remember how you lived
In a world without internet
Can you imagine what it's like
To see the world going back in time
Anemoia
A nostalgia we couldn't feel
Anemoia
If time travel could be real
I can't deny it's how I feel
These feelings are the only things that are real
Reverse the clock to reach my place
To cleanse the smog within my hearts deepest space
