Before The Blacklist - 2001 Lyrics

You walk the halls of forgotten past
Regret the lost time behind the mask
Born into a turn of a century but so last year
Locking eyes with everyone who sees through
Your disguise cuz they don't believe you
Where's the wise beyond your fears

Living fast with the stories I'm telling
Pain in the ass cuz I'm machiavellian
Don't put it past me to change how I'm falling in love
Improvising when life isn't scripted
Changing my mind but in time I'm addicted
Don't rewrite only try knowing why is enough
And that's 2001

Full speed ahead but I'm slowing down
My knees bled while I was skipping town
Wasting away while the rest were all turning the page
Heart artificial so why change my mind
Work while I whistle as I let go of time
You can't act your day and age

Now I'm living fast with the stories I'm telling
Pain in the ass cuz I'm machiavellian
Don't put it past me to change how I'm falling in love
Improvising when life isn't scripted
Changing my mind but in time I'm addicted
Don't rewrite only try knowing why is enough
And that's 2001

There's no changing who you'll be
When you're stuck in your space odyssey
Hoping but alone and scared of
Growing toward what I'm aware of

Improvising when life isn't scripted
Changing my mind but in time I'm addicted
Don't rewrite only try knowing why is enough
And that's 2001
