Past Tense

Past Tense - Neoni

Lyrics by：Sidney D Powell/Caitlin A Powell/Jason Suwito

Composed by：Sidney D Powell/Caitlin A Powell/Jason Suwito

I've always hated credit scenes

They remind me all my favorite things

Have an ending

Mm mm

And then I start to overthink

And I spiral on eternity

And it sends me

Mm mm

Deep into a tizzy

'Til I'm nice and dizzy

Like am I enough

Am I enough

Am I on the cusp of everything I can be

Know that it sounds campy

But it's keeping me up

When my now turns into was

Will I be proud of

Who I have been

When my skin's all wrinkled and rough

Will I be proud of who I have been

When I know how it all happened

And I'm talking in past tense

When I'm gray and medicated

Just to keep my heart from fading

Don't want to hate the retrograding

Wanna be proud of what I've made

And all the stories that I'm saying

'Til the bittersweets all I'm tasting

I can feel my body wasting

But the thought of the end

It doesn't send me

Deep into a tizzy

'Til I'm nice and dizzy

Like am I enough

Am I enough

Am I on the cusp of everything I can be

Know that it sounds campy

But it's keeping me up

When my now turns into was

Will I be proud of who I have been

When my skin's all wrinkled and rough

Will I be proud of who I have been

When I know how it all happened

And I'm talking in past tense

Seconds to minutes to hours to days

Then I turn around

And it's been a decade

Don't want to focus on the things I'd change

Now I'm motion-sick

Watching time fly away

Seconds to minutes to hours to days

When my time's been spent

It's all purchased and paid

I don't want to focus on the things I'd change

Just want to be happy with who I became

Seconds to minutes to hours to days

Then I turn around

And it's been a decade

Don't want to focus on the things I'd change

Now I'm motion-sick watching time fly away

Seconds to minutes to hours to days

When my time's been spent

It's all purchased and paid

I don't want to focus on the things I'd change

Just want to be happy with who I became

When my now turns into was

Will I be proud of who I have been

When I know how it all happened

And I'm talking in past tense
