Left Behind

I woke up one morning to find that the world had moved along

Remoulded, rebranded and redefined

And now I'm resigned to my fate

In a place I no longer belong

You see I, I closed my eyes and got left behind

Nothing makes sense to me

In this twenty-first century

I'm a child of my time

And place in history

Whilst I was dreaming the whole world was redesigned

When I opened my eyes I'd been left behind

I still remember when anything was possible

All I had to do was make up my mind

Now what do I find, I blink and miss

What was to be irreplaceable

You see I, I closed my eyes and got left behind

Life used to make sense to me

Back in the twentieth century

We are all the products of

Our place in history

Take me back to the days of vinyl 45s

Analogue me and hit rewind

Do you need reminding of simpler times

When we still controlled our lives

Before I closed my eyes and got left behind

Before I closed my eyes and got left behind

Before I closed my eyes and got left behind
