    Lyrics:
    Well I have seen your face among the flashing lights
    Would you believe me if I told you what I know?
    I’ve seen outside the lens of this film camera
    But I think maybe you’ll think I’m fucking crazy
    I know that we have been here in another life
    I know that my mind’s not lost in the fog
    These posters on the wall look so familiar
    It’s too cold to leave here but I know it’ll disappear
    The TV only plays these static channels
    There’s too many wires too unplug it from the walls
    You’ve torn apart this tape that just plays backwards
    Never-ending
    The carpet floor is so damn soft and comfortable
    What’s the point of sleeping in a bed?
    In the basement of a house with open windows
    Nothing’s locked up
    I left that hall I once thought inaccessible
    We’ll watch old films from a different point of view
    The storm outside builds up to a climax
    A lightning bolt
    Color bars are beaming through the blacks of your eyes
    And in the hum of electricity my heart will hear a melody
    We’ve been here before in some distant memory
    I don’t want to wake up from this dream
    I’m dreaming in the heart of the storm
    And when the power grid goes out our love will keep each other warm
    We’ve been here before in some distant memory
    I don’t want to wake up from this dream
    And what is this to you
    If not a chance to prove your worth?
    We were not all born
    To remain on planet earth
    I know that we have been here in another life
    I know that my mind’s not lost in the fog
    You’ve torn apart this tape that just plays backwards
    Never-ending
    Color bars are beaming through the blacks of your eyes
    And in the hum of electricity my heart will hear a melody
    We’ve been here before in some distant memory
    I don’t want to wake up from this dream
    I’m dreaming in the heart of the storm
    And when the power grid goes out our love will keep each other warm
    We’ve been here before in some distant memory
    I don’t want to wake up from this dream

    i've embraced this song once again, i found the beauty behind why i loved this song at the first place. im forever grateful to casio dad for making this piece of art, it has taken a part on my life and i will always acknowledge it that way. turns out everytime im tired, happy or just bored this song never fails to entertain me with all sorts of emotion it offers. i always enjoyed the sense of comfort, discomfort, nostalgia, painful memories and much more from this song. the lyrics are somewhat painful yet the melodies are soothing and sometimes harsh. its a perfect harmony for those whose heart are confused on where to settle, forever sailing in the sea of confusion. when you yourself are inside chaos, you can find beauty and sometimes peace in others chaos. this time i came back with a troubled mind and confused heart, and yet again this song proves to be able to calm everything down.
    I think back then i was just not in the right feeling to enjoy this song, thats why i was troubled on why it felt different hearing this song again. i was never missing any memories or something align of that, it just felt different and i was too afraid to let go of the comfort that this song used to provide me. hope this resonates with someone else lol, it would be cool if it did

    there's something dissatisfying about this music now. It's not that its a bad song, but the memories I've left with the song. I think i swore to forget a memory back then when i was hearing to this song, and i eventually forgot about it. Now everytime i heard to this song, theres always something unsatisfying about it. Like theres a hole that's missing when im hearing to it, because i can't seem to remember a memory that feels very important to me. The sole reason i had become the me today, but i can't just conjure up events or moments to recall those memories. This haunts me.
    If theres anything i want to say is, please cherish your memories, be it bitter or sweet. I think this is one of the worst feeling I've had in a while.

That probably goes for anything else too (but i'd love this one the most :) ) If there's any conflicts or the like that would have, i'd at least like to know why, you guys make great stuff.

It feels bittersweet but this song is still one of my favourites years later! Hope I’ll be back here in a few years again.
