NOSTALGIA POISONING

IT’S A BATTLE NOT WORTH FIGHTING
YOU’RE LIKE THUNDER, I’M LIKE LIGHTNING
SEEMS YOU’RE ALWAYS FOLLOWING ME AROUND

IT’S A SKIN I TRY TO SHAKE OFF
A ONE WAY RIDE I’M GONNA GET OFF
BUT YOU’RE ALWAYS FOLLOWING ME AROUND

WHEN YOU PULL IT FROM THE GROUND
YOU DRAG PIECES OF ME DOWN

PLEASE OH PLEASE
I WON’T MISS YOU WHEN YOU LEAVE
IT’S A FAIRY TALE YOU LIVE IN
IF YOU THINK YOU ARE FORGIVEN

PLEASE OH PLEASE
WON’T YOU LESSEN MY DISEASE
DON’T YOU BOTHER ME NO MORE
AND IF YOU TALLY UP THE SCORE

I STILL WIN
IT’S NOSTALGIA POISONING

ALL THE KINKS AND BUGS ARE WORKED OUT
I DON’T NEED ANOTHER LETDOWN
YOU CAN WALK YOUR MEMORY LANE ALONE

TIME IS MOVING ONE DIRECTION
SO LET GO OF THE PAST YOU’RE STUCK IN
YOU CAN WALK YOUR MEMORY LANE ALONE

WHEN YOU PULL IT FROM THE GROUND
YOU DRAG PIECES OF ME DOWN

PLEASE OH PLEASE
I WON’T MISS YOU WHEN YOU LEAVE
IT’S A FAIRY TALE YOU LIVE IN
IF YOU THINK YOU ARE FORGIVEN

PLEASE OH PLEASE
WON’T YOU LESSEN MY DISEASE
DON’T YOU BOTHER ME NO MORE
AND WHEN YOU COUNT UP THE SCORE

IT’S NOSTALGIA POISONING
