abney park - anemoia lyrics

[verse 1]
walls of stone and creeping vines
a fragrant ruin in swift decline
me, longing for the ancient days
have not rigged a wooden galleons
or hunted prey with beak and talons
nostalgia for a time that’s gone away

[verse 2]
never mounted a horse in silver armour
rescued a maiden and then i charmed her
these times, i’ll never live firsthand
but i’m longing for a time i’ve missed
nostalgia cursed from fantasies
present world’s too dark or is too bland

[chorus]
oh, i sit full of anemoia
nostalgia for a time i’ve never known
oh, i sit full of anemoia
i miss a time that never was my own

[verse 3]
i daydream like it’s memory
but it’s an unlived fantasy
missing times that i have never seen
never explored an unknown land
or rescued artefacts by hand
an undiscovered time i’ve never been
[verse 4]
i suppose i could relive them
all the times i’ve never lived in
but faking it is never quite the same
so i sit and miss past times
search through my nostalgic rhymes
for a past i really cannot claim

[chorus]
oh, i sit full of anemoia
nostalgia for a time i’ve never known
oh, i sit full of anemoia
i miss a time that never was my own

[bridge]
it may just be my fantasy
i’m too far from reality
but i miss it like it was my own
fighting dragons, [?]
stealing magical medallions
i have to say it all feels like my home

[verse 5]
i suppose i could relive them
all the times i’ve never lived in
but faking it is never quite the same
so i sit and miss past times
search through my nostalgic rhymes
for a past i really cannot claim
[chorus]
oh, i sit full of anemoia
nostalgia for a time i’ve never known
oh, i sit full of anemoia
i miss a time that never was my own
