the kelseys - 1998 lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i’m left sitting in your shadow
remembering our times through
the poetry i wrote, the poetry i wrote
another dollar for your green book
smile to remind me, more vivid now
it’s been a while, i’ll lie and say
i’m alright tonight, alright tonight

[chorus]
1998, twenty years i’ve had to wait
i’m speechless in the wake
1998, twenty years i’ve had to wait
i’m speechless in the wake
i’m feeling less awake

[verse 2]
your name stains blue screens
i’ll read it back like braille without feeling it
maybe it’s the price of a failure to fail
greek symbols in slant type
a bank of memories to wipe
it’s a contemplation, meditation on thoughts i lost
a dangerous mediation to avoid uncovered costs

[chorus]
1998, twenty years i’ve had to wait
i’m speechless in the wake
1998, twenty years i’ve had to wait
i’m speechless in the wake
i’m feeling less awake
1998, twenty years i’ve had to wait (oh-oh-oh-oh)
i’m speechless in the wake
1998, twenty years i’ve had to wait (oh-oh-oh-oh)
i’m speechless in the wake
i’m feeling less awake

[bridge]
you left it in detroit alone
i sit with your ghost on the bus home
please don’t tell me i’m okay
it needs more than a bandaid to fix
with your pithy politeness, it feels fake
a drink won’t wash this pain away
i know i’m too selfish to hear you
you’ll wilt and i’ll cry when it’s

[outro]
too late
too late
it’s too late
it’s too late
