Wayyyyy Back
Social Club Misfits Lyrics

My era was so beautiful
I look back fondly on my childhood, when everything seemed simpler and happier.

Home to the championship Mets and the Rubik's Cube

Voltron figures with the lion fists shooting out

And everybody that we lost, you will forever remain

Sing along to the song, God loves yo

Can't forget the Nick at Night reruns, all love boat

We talk about the times like the better days
I often reminisce with friends about past experiences, referring to them as 'the good old days.'

But if I had a choice to leave, I think I'd probably rather stay
Despite the challenges and uncertainties of adulthood, I sometimes long to go back to the simplicity and joy of my childhood.

I probably never thought that life would be this way

But I love it, listen to John Mayer stop this train

Me that, the same loser kid from the high school

Me and Gabe would sneak out
I have memories of mischief and breaking the rules while hanging out with my friend Gabe.

I never really liked school
I struggled with school and may not have enjoyed it as much as others did.

The same kids you picked on became millionaires
I find it funny that some of the kids who were picked on in school went on to great success as adults.

I don't know, what the heck I'm doing here
Despite my successes and joys in life, I sometimes feel uncertain or unclear about my purpose or direction in life.

But it's crazy how we ended up, pretended how we had
Despite the uncertainties and changes in my life, I find it amazing how I ended up where I am today, and I may sometimes pretend that everything is just as I hoped it would be.

Girlfriends from different schools that we never got, it's

Everything was simple, I just wanna go back and
