Nick Rolser - One Book Back on the Shelf Lyrics

Oh, nostalgia of summers past
I knew deep down you would not last
These times come around just as those go
Now there's fresh dew on the grass that's overgrown
I remember everything, yes I remember
The good times, the bad times, but the bad times seem better
All the cards that I'd been dealt, all that I had felt
You cannot take that away, it only adds and changes shape

In my dreams
Everything's alright
In my dreams
I found I am Life
How could I be scared of dying now?
The shepherd leaves behind your holy cow
To find a new direction

I took two steps and one back
Circled round the cul-de-sac
Through the cities, and the ships
Saw a building burnt down to a crisp
Ran uphill in spite of debts
Caught inside a spider web
That I weaved all by myself
But that's one book back on the shelf

In my dreams
Everything's alright
And in my dreams
I found I am Life
How could I be scared of dying now
The future's off the wall and on the ground
And in a new direction
