[Verse 1: RealisticLee]
Recently I've been reminiscing
A certain sad sense of nostalgia
The state of this year what life's been missing
Shit makes me sadder
I was unaware of where I was, how good shit was
I've never been here before
I'm not any gladder that this year's getting badder
Back then I was an inbetweener, I'd just seen the show
Yelling bus wankers right out the window
I miss the dumb, fun, young lad shit, where the fuck did it go
Another time we were in HMV
A woman holds up in her hands a DVD
She held up a copy of The Devil Inside and asked us ''If we had the devil inside''
Nah we decided to run and hide, up the escalator before shit escalated
So we yelled ''smell ya later''
Can't even go to the fucking cinema
Miss sitting in the rows and letting the film get into ya
Miss talking to mates and the people I was always seeing
People around me and speaking about a load of shite and hangin' out in the evening
[Chorus: RealisticLee]
This is time in my life that I'm not getting back
This is time in our lives that we're not getting back
Reminiscing about fun times and the boys I'm not forgetting that
Thinking about old times and old friends, never regretting that
[Verse 2: RealisticLee]
Was never really a party animal but I miss the parties
Barbecues and hanging out in the meadows, it's not mental hardly
Much to ask for, life's not going anywhere and I'm going crazy partly
I'm normally the joker of the group but just now I feel like Mark Hamil
'Cause I've got Arkham inside me
Younger me could barely stand still
Back then I would've lost my shit and thrown an anvil
Right through the pane and trampled a fucking anthill
Sitting round, hangin' out eating in the summertime
Fresh air, girls out in large numbers and they're fine
We were playing football, tennis an basketball
Staying inside all day, nah mate couldn't be assed at all
When it comes to normal life and fun I've got fast withdrawal
High school, uni and college I'm past it all
I did my time at the SRUC
I mean university
Not in a penitentiary
Life back then was elementary
But I don't miss or wanna repeat learning my ABC shit
But I do miss when PSN used to be free
I didn't have to download game data on the PS3
Going to birthday parties, a food fight in Dundee
Too much energy drink, swinging from poles, that was fucking funny
Same dudes party the next year, he's partaking in drunk parkour
Took a run up, ran straight into a fence, didn't even jump too
I miss having shit film days, going to FOP and browsing DVD displays
[Chorus: RealisticLee]
This is time in my life that I'm not getting back
This is time in our lives that we're not getting back
Reminiscing about fun times and the boys I'm not forgetting that
Thinking about old times and old friends, never regretting that
[Interlude: Instumental]
[Chorus: RealisticLee]
This is time in my life that I'm not getting back
This is time in our lives that we're not getting back
Reminiscing about fun times and the boys I'm not forgetting that
Thinking about old times and old friends, never regretting that
[Verse 3: RealisticLee]
Reminiscing and I'm missing the shit film marathons
I'm talking 'Megashark Vs Giant Octopus' and then we land upon
Sharks in a tornado, living inside a volcano, super gator and a croc, add it all up
In the end I miss the fits of spontaneous laughter
And all the dumb jokes that followed after
When music used to be infinitely better
The feeling of the first time I bought an Eminem record
Me and Xander listening to Kamikaze and MTBMB together
Late Friday night, work the next morning, effort
Wasn't always about being a trend setter
Nowadays the music just seems to seem like it's even deader
No one reads into the shit, not into the lyrics, the footnote or the header
Times are changing, people being lazy, maybe we're getting elder
I miss hearing a track, sticking it on the PC, CD or hi-fi, turning it up 'cause it's a belter
But I've never been one for going on mental nights out or weekend benders
This whole year I wish I could pack up and return to sender
I'm just missing having fun and didn't want an apocalypse or world ender
