1994 (Recorded at Metropolis Studios, London) Lyrics

[Spoken Intro]
Hi, what's up, I’m Cavetown and this is my Deezer Sessions

[Verse 1]
I'm trying to forgive myself for things I didn't do
For words I didn’t say and things I didn't choose
Spending every day decomposing in my room
I'm not okay, but there's nothing I can do

[Verse 2]
I'm tryna love the person I was when I was born
Hating on a kid doesn't serve me anymore
Sylvanians making stories on the floor
And my mom and dad in love like it's 1994

[Chorus]
Say you're coming around
I need you, lately everything’s been getting me down
Yeah, the kids are grown up, I feel like I’m stuck
But I don't wanna catch up right now

[Verse 3]
I’m tryna get a better sense of what I'm worth
'Cause I've been on the fence and in the dirt
Taking it easy
But I forgot I have a job and nothing ever stops so
[Chorus]
Say you’re coming around
I need you, lately everything's getting me down
Yeah, the kids are grown up, I feel like I'm stuck
But I don't wanna catch up right now

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Say you're coming around
I need you, lately everything's been getting me down
I broke a glass on the floor, it was the last straw
It's like I woke up on the wrong side of town
Say you're coming around
I need you, lately everything's getting me down
I felt so much older than the kids 'round corner
I feel so much younger now

[Outro]
Overtook them all and slowed back down
Blamed a child in a daisy crown

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
