Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Sleep ‘til noon on a Tuesday

Missed calls on a cracked flip phone

Burned discs stacked on the carpet

Names in Sharpie

All in a row

Long walks home after practice

Backpacks stained with the summer rain

Didn’t care what the world was saying

Didn’t care

We just knew your name

[Chorus]

I’m lost before the screens

Back when nothing had to mean

Anything but being there

Stupid jokes and tangled hair

I’m chasing things I can’t rewind

Old cartoons and borrowed time

The world before the endless feed

I’m lost before the screens

[Verse 2]

Cheap cologne in your basement

Band tees hung from a bedroom door

Half-truths scribbled in yearbooks

“Keep in touch

” but we never swore

Parents talking in headlines

Now the headlines talk for them

Back then silence felt like breathing

Now it’s loud in my head again

[Chorus]

I’m lost before the screens

Back when nothing had to mean

Anything but being there

Stupid jokes and tangled hair

I’m chasing things I can’t rewind

Old cartoons and borrowed time

The world before the endless feed

I’m lost before the screens

[Bridge]

Do you remember

Waiting all week just to hear one song?

Do you remember

Thinking this year couldn’t last too long?

Now I scroll through faded faces

Same old names in different places

Every memory feels rehearsed

Like we lived it in reverse (oh)

[Chorus]

I’m lost before the screens

Back when nothing had to mean

Anything but being there

Stupid jokes and tangled hair

I’m chasing things I can’t rewind

Old cartoons and borrowed time

The world before the endless feed

I’m lost before the screens

Yeah I’m lost before the screens
