Thinking of the Time
Reflecting on Punk's Evolution: Burning Heads' Nostalgic Journey
Lyrics
Thinking of the time, we would go to shows
Reflecting on the past when attending music shows
They called it HC, called it punk, it doesn't matter
Labels like hardcore (HC) or punk were used, but the genre doesn't matter
It was not violent and it was for the cause
The music was not violent and had a purpose or message
Taking a trip was less than this song
Suggesting that the experience of a trip was less than the impact of the song
After song the heat was rising up
After the song, the energy and excitement increased
And everybody was getting wet
Intense atmosphere, with everyone becoming sweaty
Diving in the pit moshing in the pit diving
Engaging in crowd activities like diving, moshing, and diving in the pit
In the
Continuation or extension of the pit activities
We grew up and it was getting harder
As they grew up, the music scene became more challenging
Moving and jumping all the time
Describing energetic movement and jumping during performances
Twenty years of beer and punk could have
Twenty years of involvement in beer and punk culture may have consequences
Cut more than one purple spike
Suggesting that the punk lifestyle could have affected physical appearance (purple spike)
Fortunately there were vitamins, dear adrenalin
Fortunately, there were positive aspects like vitamins and adrenaline
Just another bass loop
Referring to the repetition of bass loops in music
Another guitar trick
Highlighting common guitar techniques in punk music
A stop and go
Referencing musical dynamics like stop-and-go patterns
Pedal to the metal
Emphasizing a high-energy, aggressive musical style
Thinking of the time
Returning to memories of the past
Yesterday a kid came to me he said hey grandpa
An encounter with a younger generation questioning the music choice
What's that shit you listen to
Disparagingly referring to the music as "shit"
Some punk from '99
Mentioning punk music from 1999
It wasn't violent and it was for the cause
Reiterating that the music is not violent and has a purpose
Taking a trip was less than this song
Comparing the impact of a trip to the intensity of the song
After song the heat was rising up
Similar to line 5, describing the heightened atmosphere after a song
And everybody was getting wet
Repeating the idea of everyone getting sweaty and engaged
Diving in the pit moshing in the pit with
Continuation of energetic crowd activities in the pit
Just another bass loop
Reiteration of bass loops as a musical element
Another guitar trick
Repeating the mention of common guitar techniques
A stop and go
Repeating the idea of stop-and-go patterns in the music
Pedal to the metal
Reinforcing the high-energy nature of the music
Thinking of the time
Revisiting memories and reflecting on the past
I heard him say
Quoting someone's criticism about the music being too slow
Man it's too fucking slow
Expressing dissatisfaction with the perceived slowness of the music
And how could people listen to
Questioning how people can listen to such music
That stuff oh no
Continuing the expression of dissatisfaction with the music's speed
I heard him say
Repeating the sentiment of the music being too slow
Man it's too fucking slow
Continuing to question the appeal of the music
And how could people listen to
Repeating the idea of questioning the listenership of the music
Just another bass loop
Reiterating bass loops as a recurring musical element
Another guitar trick
Repeating the mention of common guitar techniques
A stop and go
Repeating the idea of stop-and-go patterns in the music
Pedal to the metal
Reinforcing the high-energy nature of the music
