Lyrics 1999 - Suburban Kids With Biblical Names

1999

We travel on sunbeams
On our way in high speed
We saw days go by with love
And I sent shy dreams
I remember the bad weed
Getting high on the balcony
And I remember the part good
Where you called the band girls
When you fell in love on that floor
And you took the first bus
Out of the city, into the pity
Sometimes I go back to where I was before I was it
And don’t come back before it kills
Cause it’s been thrilling me since 1994
I wouldn’t tell you this but all things have a price
So I might as well tell:
You were always on my mind
I could have been there all the time
But that’s the wrong path
We travel on
We travel in first class
Deep in the high speed
We’ve seen all the deals
On laser digits and in low streams
Don’t you see what this means?
Something deeper
But we could still win this
We can go back again
Back to when phone was mondays
And mondays weren’t just a giant step
Into the waltz of boredom
Into distortion
Sometimes I go back to where I was before I was this
And don’t come back before it kills
Cause it’s been thrilling me since 1994
I wouldn’t tell you this but all things have a price
So I might as well tell:
You were always on my mind
I could have been there all the time
But that’s the wrong path
