1994

from Myocardial by Itoarazi

lyrics

He can't help but look back to the time he broke free
Isolated for so long, he could start to just be
Nostalgia may be the most seductive of liars
But until then, he'd been dead for many years prior

Communication was ill, but despite these errata
The world burst open like a rotting piñata
It came running towards him in a old pair of sneakers
With mistuned guitars and blown-out speakers

"Why's he pining for 1994?"

With the superunknown no longer going astray
And though the view there seemed long, he could come out and play
As the bell rang aloud, with paths no longer divided
This loser had found his place, by hope he was guided

"I swear I'll let love in and live through this derision"
He said, as love blew a hole through a vision
He rejoiced as he witnessed his first fallen dictator
Whose replacement would join him there 17 years later

Cut to the present day, interior, at home:
The downward spiral persists, not hard to tell from his phone
The once-funkdafied outlook now tainted and diced
Current times make the old times look like paradise
