The Shins – So Now What Lyrics 8 years ago
"Oh, girl, it's been a while
Since we met, out there in the cold
It seems so long ago
It's hard to imagine
The lives we used to have
When the nights were ours alone"

Could be interpreted as having been in a relationship for so long that you forget who you were before it, or that you forget what it was like when it was just the two of you, before children. Either way, time has passed.

The Shins – Fantasy Island Lyrics 8 years ago
My first favorite song on this album. My interpretation is a character who is very self-critical and has always overthought everything, even from a young age. Maybe a romantic, but for certain an idealist who lives in their head. It's easier to live in a fantasy world inside of your head than to risk rejection by expressing your thoughts to another person.
