Remember in days of old

Lyrics

Remember in days of old When nights was cold before cellphones was invented. We were maps and heavy wool, Running through the park until the sky went blue and grey. Now the static is a comfort But the quiet used to be a home. Chorus Oh, give me that dial tone, Wrapped in a cord and the unknown. Before the screen light turned us to stone, We were high on the air and the marrow and bone. It's a digital ghost, a beautiful lie, But the old school hearts never die. No, they never die. Verse 2 I found a letter in a box of tapes, Written in a hand I barely recognize now. We used to speak in long pauses and ink, Thinking through the thoughts before they reached the edge. Now it's all instant and pixelated Like a memory of a face I forgot to keep. Chorus Oh, give me that dial tone, Wrapped in a cord and the unknown. Before the screen light turned us to stone, We were high on the air and the marrow and bone. It's a digital ghost, a beautiful lie, But the old school hearts never die. No, they never die. Bridge Is the connection real if the wire isn't there? (the wire isn't there) Can you feel the cold if the air is just a blur? (just a blur) I'm reaching out through the glass and the gold, Trying to find the heat of the days of old. Outro Remember in days of old, When the nights was cold... Now it's just me and the static.
