Hold Steady Hands Lyrics
(Jack sings)
Nostalgia come and haunt me
My youth seems so unfamiliar
You creep up in vague impressions
But my focus seems to blur
And a quiet violence consumes me
What little still remains
And though nothing’s changed around me
Nothing feels the same
We sacrifice with a blessing
As awkward as it seems
We traded play for purpose
And love for laser beams
The past chews up the future
And only fools reminisce
But with infinite possibility
I can’t shake what I miss
Hold my affection
Hold steady hands
Take these seeds
And plant them
And grow them again
Just once I’d like
To feel that time
Is on my side
And give back
All those moments
That were mine
Nostalgia come and haunt me
My youth seems so unfamiliar
You creep up in vague impressions
But my focus seems to blur
And a quiet violence consumes me
What little still remains
Nothing feels the same
As awkward as it seems
We traded play for purpose
And love for laser beams
The past chews up the future
And only fools reminisce
But with infinite possibility
I can’t shake what I miss
Hold steady hands
Take these seeds
And plant them
And grow them again
To feel that time
Is on my side
And give back
All those moments
That were mine
