lyrics

I wanna go back to a time when the world was fine
and everyone could see I was fine
I wanna go back to a time when the world was mine
and everyone could see it was mine
I wanna go back to when I never thought about time and
learn why I never thought about time
I wanna go back to when I didn’t know I would die and
learn why I never thought about dying

I wanna go back
I wanna go back

I wanna go back to before I got too old for the stories
and the stories got too old for me
I wanna go back to before I even knew they were stories
like before the stories needed to be
I wanna go back to before I had to know what I know
and just know then what I didn’t know then
I wanna go back but still know what I know in my bones
and avoid the things that caused me to know them

I wanna go back to some perfected time
I wanna go back to some perfected time

It all began long before you were born
you’re the things that you learned
you’re the things that they learned
it all began long before you were born
you’re righting your wrongs
you’re righting their wrongs
it all began long before we were born

and we try and we try and we try and we try
and we try and we try and we try and we try
and we try and we try and we try and we try

I want to go back to when I wanted the things that I needed
and learn not to want the things I don’t need
I want to go back to before I learned to want so much more
and just be satisfied with meeting my needs
I wish I were fine and just boring and happy and normal
like other people seem to be
I wish I could find and just be fully satisfied by the normal
kind of lives that other people lead

I wanna go back to some perfected time
I wanna go back to some perfected time
I wanna go back to some perfected time
I wanna go back to some perfected time
