Fast Forward Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Just got the mirror on the way out
Don't recognize myself anymore now
Been running in circles and I can't get out
The less I know the better it rings loud

[Chorus]
Just when you wanna fast forward
You know it's gonna hurt some more
When you feel the fire is gone
I'll pour some gasoline on
I, I, I'll pour some gasoline on
I, I, I'll pour some gasoline on
And I might be down but I'm not fucking out
'Cause I need more hours to turn this one around

[Verse 2]
I scratched the surface yesterday, I
I know how this one will play out
Let me start you before you start
You played yours, I played my part
Both cut from the same cloth

[Chorus]
Just when you wanna fast forward
You know it's gonna hurt some more
When you feel the fire is gone
I'll pour some gasoline on
I, I, I'll pour some gasoline on
I, I, I'll pour some gasoline on
And I might be down but I'm not fucking out
'Cause I need more hours to turn this one around
I, I, I, I

[Bridge]
I know you miss the old days, the old days are gone
Everything you've got isn't what you want
I know you miss the old days, the old days are gone
Everything you've got isn't what you want

[Chorus]
When you wanna fast forward
You know it's gonna hurt some more
When you feel the fire is gone
I'll pour some gasoline on
I, I, I'll pour some gasoline on
I, I, I'll pour some gasoline on
And I might be down but I'm not fucking out
'Cause I need more hours to turn this one around
I, I, I, I

How did the song come together?

“We were in a studio in Shepard’s Bush doing some writing for other artists. We weren’t expecting to come out with music suitable for YMA6.”

What inspired it?

“The song is one of the most self reflective songs we’ve ever written lyrically. Fork in the road moment in my life. Was pretty lost actually, in a state of absence from myself. I had this line ‘Just when you wanna fast forward, you know it’s gotta hurt some more.’ It’s about accepting sometimes you...

What was the process of making the song like?

“Every song we write in YMA6 is quite cathartic but this was like word vomit. I didn’t write anything down. I didn’t need to. Max had this riff and we wanted the track to be filled with angst, almost uncomfortable.”
