Former Ruins - Cars of Our Youth Lyrics

Sunlight spread out on the glass
I push this pedal down to get the feeling back
I knew these routes without any maps
I didn't think I'd get lost
But I have
Rent a dream with me, I've already priced it
I've signed my name, put yours beside it
Paradise is a feeling, I saw that on an advertisement
But it didn't feel as false as it does at this moment
When we're closer to the edge of our discontent
Feeling further from the truth cause I've been trying hard to forget that

Nothing satisfies us like it used to
(Not like I thought it'd be)
Nothing reminds us our desires rust like cars of our youth
Nothing satisfies us like it promises to do
(Not like it used to be)
Nothing will drive us down to dust like cars of our youth

I remember the feeling when we were shown it
Have I missed my renewal notice?
We were promised happiness would be us in motion
But I'm still at this wheel
And I don't feel closer to it
I just feel closer to the edge
How did we get here,
Trying so hard to get the feeling back?

Cause nothing satisfies us like it used to
(Not like I thought it'd be)
Nothing reminds us our desires rust like cars of our youth
(Not like it used to be)
Nothing satisfies us like it promises to do
(Not like I thought it'd be)
Nothing will drive us down to dust like cars...
(Not like it used to be)
