Full Lyrics//

Today I mourned my youth again
Swallowed up in the deep end
Swallowed up in deep end
I might have lost my pride again
Washed up in the shallow end
Washed up in the shallow end

I keep on falling for the same old game
Just like Ive done before
Just like ive done before
Inviting all my pain of my living
To go and take some more
To go and take some more

Chorus
Im stuck on nostalgia
Now that I am wiser
I can feel the pressure
Hold me under water
I just wanna see me
Live a little longer
I just can’t get over
Don’t wanna be a goner

Can I feel at home again
Sinking in no fighting it
Sinking in no fighting it
All my fears and coulda beens
Further than they’ve ever been
Further than they’ve ever been

I’ve gotta hold onto every moment
Make it the only one
Make it the only one
I can’t keep fighting every crashing wave
You know I’m not that strong
You know I’m not that strong

Im stuck on nostalgia
Now that I am wiser
I can feel the pressure
Hold me under water
I just wanna see me
Live a little longer
I just can’t get over
Don’t wanna be a goner

A great song. It reaches you deep down inside, touching your soul in a unique, transcedental way. Mesmerizing video.

Wow! 🤩 I’m blown away by the production quality of this music video! 🎥 GORGEOUS videography and editing! 😍 And the SONG! 😫 This is genuinely one of the prettiest pieces I’ve heard — from any artist — in a long time. It is so wistful and has this beautiful, dreamy sound. You feel like you’re being swept away by golden waves in the chorus, just like you see in the music video. Ugh, I could keep gushing about this. 😫 I love love love it! 😍 An incredible job well done, Haley and crew! 🥰 Bravo! 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻

This song it's such an amazing discovery. Beautiful song, video and singer 💕

[Mystry]

This is such a great expression to how (I assume) so many other people feel right now, with the state of world, with aging, having a draw toward what you knew once was. Really stellar song, thank you!
