orry maine - glory of the past lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]

we’ve been here before
figments of passion
imagine what this was for
deeper connection?
affection to reap reward
modern perfection’s complexion
implores “old+school’s” dissection

still we get on the floor
step into places
complacent with vacant score
play through our paces
evasive wish to restore studious sp+ces
the faces of well assuasive graces

stayed in the booth last night
got a little drunk kept my phone on silent
soft and a bit contritе
missing all the calls ’cause i miss the quiеt
everything is just so loud
up against a “brick+wall” sound
is this our fate? getting lost in the crowd?

[chorus]
but that’s the glory of the past
whenever i think i’m off+track
i reel back and feel at ease
i can see through the changes
there’s some peace with the memories

and that’s the glory of the past
when this was more about the craft
before the warmth we had was freezed
to appease the in+authenticity
of the top 40

[verse 2]

i’m tired of the “viral” tired of “the game”
a musician’s survival dependent on the fame
“no price for the idol”
“no pain to pay in vein”
you can’t sign with a pencil
no way to erase your name

tell me i’m not wasting all my time
tell me i’m not giving up my life
i know if i wait to chase this career
give into all my fears foolish ears
drowning in my tears and
word’s i left unspoken
crumbled paper tokens
bedroom floor is soaken
pens i’ve fully broken
i will not play in to the industries “break+in”
i’m already bespoken i’m beholden to
all the glory of the past
