Scott B. Mackay - Old Photos

I'm tired of going through old photos
But I'm in one of those moods
Wondering if anything will ever feel brand new
Bent corners and faded faces
Hazy visions of distant places
Am I misremembering
Or are all my memories really true

The way it looks from here
You had it all figured out
But I was overwhelmed with fear
And overcome by doubt

I'd like to think that I've grown
I'd like to say now I know
But if I'm being honest
Here's my pinky promise
Well I don't know

Nostalgia stabs us in the back
Fragmented through the looking glass
How easy is it to forget that we were doing our best

Nostalgia stabs us in the back
Fragmented through the looking glass
How easy is it to forget that we were doing our best

And our best may never be enough
So what's the use in acting tough
You're so much more endearing with tears in your eyes
So if we cry than let's cry together
Don't apologize it won't last forever
It's just one more moment that is passing us by

So let's raise a glass for the tears that we shed
And cheers to the fact that somehow we're not dead
It's time we turn the page on regret

Cuz nostalgia stabs us in the back
Fragmented through the looking glass
How easy is it to forget that we were doing our best

Cuz nostalgia stabs us in the back
Fragmented through the looking glass
How easy is it to forget that we were doing our best
