Nostalgia or Noosetalgia? Cause it chokes me in it To recall a world where I existed Without a limit Crawl around a place Inside my head I can't escape Unsure if that faded memory Is real or fake And did I make it Did I make it? For here I am In a present I'm unable to open up Tied down by a past Too much spoken of And Will I make it? To a future where there is no limit Break the bad habit Take the leap Snap the rope Or end up choked by it? Pulled back by the past A rose tinted hue Blood shot eyes Of asphyxiation Fixated on a south facing view Sunny Its funny how warmth can be found In something long dead Neglecting life Favouring the thoughts in your head Gotta Be careful when you Tread this path Cause memory lane Will be all that remains Nostalgia can last Fed it will grow Your time is its payment And before you know it Your presents your past You passed up your present For your Past and your Future? What Future? All you ever hoped for or looked to was the Past

Nostalgia or Noosetalgia? Cause it chokes me in it To recall a world where I existed Without a limit Crawl around a place Inside my head I can't escape Unsure if that faded memory Is real or fake And did I make it Did I make it? For here I am In a present I'm unable to open up Tied down by a past Too much spoken of And Will I make it? To a future where there is no limit Break the bad habit Take the leap Snap the rope Or end up choked by it? Pulled back by the past A rose tinted hue Blood shot eyes Of asphyxiation Fixated on a south facing view Sunny Its funny how warmth can be found In something long dead Neglecting life Favouring the thoughts in your head Gotta Be careful when you Tread this path Cause memory lane Will be all that remains Nostalgia can last Fed it will grow Your time is its payment And before you know it Your presents your past You passed up your present For your Past and your Future? What Future? All you ever hoped for or looked to was the Past
If you live in the past the payment is always the present and ultimately your future, so let that **** go! Nostalgias not always a bad thing but for me it needs to be kept in check cause it mostly seems to be a reflection of me not appreciating or being happy in my present.
