ALCAEUS LYRICS

"Nostalgia Sickness"

So, I came back, like I said I would.
To the place that kept me smothered in lies, doubt, and hatred,
To the place where I left history to itself...

But I've always been too hopeful to let it be, even at the worst of times.
I let pride take control, let it consume my soul, that's why I never let go.

Maybe, I'm just too stubborn to get it through my head,
That even when it was the only thing that drove me to be the man that I am,
I can't always be the one to save them all, even when it's what I had promised.

Now, I'm looking back at the times that I've locked in my mind,
With all of those I've always loved.
And now I feel worthless for giving up.
Now I feel worthless for giving up...

Forgive me, I'm sorry, for not representing the words that I wished I could preach.
Just know I haven't forgotten any of you, or the place that I came from.
I promise I'll fulfill what I said that I would, but it's apparent now is not the time.
I've got some more living to do, and experiences to grow from.
When I come back, maybe I'll be someone that I am proud of.

I need some more time to improve on the lack of who I wanted to be.
I need some more time to improve on the lack of who I promised to be.

Sometimes, I look in the mirror and ask myself, "What did you expect to happen?"
Not enough time's passed, no one's forgotten enough for you to come back.
It's still all unstable.
They need to learn to breathe first, before you put pressure on their chest
And try to revive the person you thought you knew back then.
