About

On Bandcamp, KC Rae wrote,

This song is about a very specific memory with my cousin. I was terrified of breaking rules as a kid, so this experience of swiping her stepdad’s car, without a license, to go rent a movie has sunk itself into the core memory archives. It also captures the entire relation...

Blockbuster Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Remember when I was 9 or 10
I was leaving for Virginia
You chased the car down the front of the lawn
Yeah, we felt the world was ending
We’d learn the lyrics to your favorite songs
On the carpet sharing headphones
All that nostalgia rushing to my head, yeah
Creeping up on me again

[PreChorus]
Now nobody’s calling just to pick you up
Nobody’s calling on the other line
I swear to god I’ve never felt so lonely
Bring me to another time

[Chorus]
When I was 13, my cousin took the car
And she drove it to Blockbuster
“Arеn’t you scared to get caught?”
She said it wasn’t that far
I just wantеd to be like her
Can’t get it out of my head
I just want to be happy again
I just want to be happy again

[Verse 2]
Remember when we had that hotel room
We were laughing for no reason
You got me sick from a sugar rush in the morning

[PreChorus]
Nobody’s coming just to pick me up
Nobody’s calling on the other line
I swear to god I’ve never felt so lonely
Thinking that I’m gonna die

[Chorus]
I was 13, my cousin took the car
And she drove it to Blockbuster
“Aren’t you scared to get caught?”
She said it wasn’t that far
I just wanted to be like her
Can’t get it out of my head
I just want to be happy again
I just want to be happy again

[Bridge]
Wish someone had said to me
“You’re gonna miss the days of shitty cable TV”
Wanting something I can’t reach
Can’t go back, can’t go back, can’t go back

Can’t get it out of my head
I just want to be happy again

[Chorus]
I was 13, my cousin took the car
And she drove it to Blockbuster
“Aren’t you scared to get caught?”
She said it wasn’t that far
I just wanted to be like her
Can’t get it out of my head
I just want to be happy again
I just want to be happy again

[Outro]
Everything that’s happening's gonna happen again
Every time I feel the wind
I think about every time I felt the wind
At the lake or the park
Your house or the dark
Driveway, highway
Backyard, front gate
Chainlink, sunburn, bonfire, bike tire
Bloody knees, sunscreen
Sidewalk, in the dirt
Deck of cards, holograms
Church bench, blistered hands
Summer rain, Kool Aid
Gatorade, pavement
Streetlight, rollerblades, tan lines, T-shirt
Dixie chicks never miss
Clench your fist, make it hurt
In the trees, at the creek
Or the tent in the yard
Sugar Ray, sleeping bags
Headphones, walkman
Car rides, CDs, beach sand, trampoline
Trampoline, trampoline, trampoline
