Lyrics 1999 - Settle Your Scores

1999

Someone take me back to 1999
What I would give for one more night
Of feeling care free and living easy
If I could just go back in time…
I remember lying in the grass
My eyes wide and the world felt so vast
Not a worry weighing on my mind
Never thought I would fall behind
But life moved fast and I couldn’t keep up
Tried clinging to the past but it wasn’t enough
Used to play Nintendo, now I’m paying rent so
Maybe I’m already past my prime
Someone take me back to 1999
What I would give for one more night
Of feeling care free and living asy
If I could just go back in time to 1999
Then I could finally get things right
I wish th good days were like a mixtape
That I could just rewind
They’re playing All Star on the radio
Blink-182's pumping through my stereo
Catching cartoons every Saturday
Never thought everything would change
Then all at once twenty years flew by
Watched minutes turn to months in the blink of an eye
Used to play with hot wheels, now I’m paying car bills
Maybe I’m already past my prime
99 problems, one way to solve them
Turn back the clock, make it stop, make this end
I’m begging, I’m pleading
Won’t someone take me to 1999
