Discovering Identity Through Melodies
Lyrics
I can't sit still and I never will as long as I'm in this place, oh
I am restless and will remain so as long as I'm in this place.
My mind's racing but my legs ain't moving
My thoughts are active, but physically I'm not moving.
And I'm thinkin' this must be how lonely people are made
Reflecting on how loneliness is created.
I'm holed up in the dark, cause in the dark I'm just a shadow
In darkness, I'm just a shadow, hiding away.
I can pretend to be somebody, somebody that I don't know
I can pretend to be someone unfamiliar.
I wanna know everything, I wanna feel it all
Desire to experience and understand everything.
But all I know of love are songs that echo through the halls of, halls of
Love is known through echoing songs in the halls.
Generation Records, baby, go on and hold me in the palm of your hand
Reference to Generation Records as a significant influence or source of comfort.
Generation Records, save me, go on and play that song again
Seeking salvation through Generation Records, asking for a familiar song.
Wanted to change something about myself here and there
Desire for self-improvement.
Until here and there became everywhere
Transformation sought until it becomes all-encompassing.
Never thought I would be this scared I fell in love with the future before I met her and
Fear of falling in love with an envisioned future that doesn't align with reality.
She wasn't who I thought she would be, so now I'm pacing down the aisles of the record store
Disappointment in love, searching for solace in a record store.
Tryna to find a sweet melody, to fade into me, and find myself whoever that is meant to be, oh
Looking for a comforting melody to find oneself.
Generation Records, baby, go on and hold me in the palm of your hand
Reiteration of the significance of Generation Records.
Generation Records, save me, go on and play that song again, again, again
Pleading to play a familiar song repeatedly.
I make my way down underground and sort through dust covered piles
Exploring forgotten sounds in an underground record store.
Of forgotten sounds, untouched, unknown for years now
Discovering untouched and unknown music from the past.
With a 25 cent sticker slapped right on the cover like it's nothin'
Noting the indifference marked by a low price tag on valuable music.
I spent too much of my life crying like a child
Regret for spending too much time in emotional distress.
But now I know, you never get to see new places
Realization that new experiences require overcoming challenges.
If your world doesn't fall apart
Traveling to new places is impossible without life's disruptions.
Every once in a while
Occasional disruptions are necessary for personal growth.
I'm going down to Generation Records
Explicit mention of going to Generation Records.
Generation Records
Repetition emphasizing the significance of Generation Records.
Generation Records
-I'm going down, I'm going down to Generation Records
