Soja – Used To Matter lyrics

See, these days its different
It's all new. The old is gone
And I am too
Wishing I was closer to
Back when it used to matter
All my coins are gone
It's plastic now
My ipod's got me asking "how
Could all my albums take me down
To back when it used to matter?"

Now it seems that we
Are all wrapped up so tight
Light just can't get in
And I feel that we can't see
Now it seems that we
Are all wrapped up so tight
Light just can't get in
And I feel, it's not "maybe"

See, my watch is worthless
So is my pen
And it seems nothing is
Greater than
Something that takes me
Way back when, to
Back when it used to matter


All the words I write
Are on screen
And the friends I have
Have "added" me
And theres no record
Of anything
And now we all cease to matter

Now it seems that we
Are all wrapped up so tight
Light just can't get in
And I feel that we can't see
Now it seems that we
Are all wrapped up so tight
Light just can't get in
And I feel, it's not "maybe"

So you die when you turn 22
But they gonna wait to bury you
Cuz you got a 9 to 5 to do
And thats supposed to matter

So you replace your time
In between
With other peoples'
Hopes and dreams
And they live their lives on
Your TV
And now you don't even matter


Now it seems that we
Are all wrapped up so tight
Light just can't get in
And I feel that we can't see
That we can't see
That we, that we
Are all wrapped up so tight
Light just can't get in
And I feel, it's not "maybe"

I just want us to be who were
Supposed to be and who we are
Doesn't it seem like wer kinda
Far from the original plan
From the start back
When it used to matter
