Nostalgia
Is kinda like
The infinite stairs in
Super Mario 64
That play the sound
That tricks you into thinking
The notes are getting ever higher
When in reality – it’s all an illusion
…
What I mean
Is that it always seems
Yesterday was better than tomorrow
And that when we’re miserable now
We look back to how good things were
Back when whatever problems now
Never existed
…
Not me
I recognize
10 years ago
Were just as shitty
As today – I just don’t bother
To remember my Misery
So all that’s left
Are the few moments of goodness
That make me forget
I’m not worse off
Just exactly where I’ve always been
