About

This song was written right around the time that Max first attended college.

This song seems to be about dealing with losing the sharpness and clarity of youth as you grow older, and perhaps more self-medicated.

Try To Remember, Forget Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It is my birthday, it is a new year
I should be happy that I am still here
Light up a new joint, put on an old shirt
Try to remember, forget how my brain works

[Pre-Chorus 1]
But I could read a book a night before this year
I knew every word, their definitions clear
But now in stealth I check thesaurus
It's become my guilty mistress

[Chorus 1]
So I heave my breath at burning wax
Cause I know that spark ain't coming back
So I heave my breath at burning wax
Cause I know that spark ain't coming back

[Verse 1]
It is my birthday, I've got all my friends here
We haven't been talking as of lately
They've all found new bros and babies
I have smoked away my pride
I have smoked away my pride
There is nothing but the cinders of it inside

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I believed in more than nothingness last year
And under every quiet failure it's still here
Buried breathing under 18 years of tragedy and fear

[Chorus 2]
If I could crawl my way out of this grave
I just think of all the time I'd save
And I heave my breath at burning wax
Cause that spark ain't coming back again

[Bridge]
Stereo's playing the same old songs
The same old songs, but we still hum along
Stereo's playing the same old songs
The same old songs, but we still hum along
Stereo's playing the same old songs
The same old songs, but we still hum along
Stereo's playing the same old songs
The same old songs, but we still hum along

[Pre-Chorus 3]
And in no time we'll be spread across the earth
Donning business suits to show the faceless master what we're worth
From our Huggies to Armani and it all seems so rehearsed

[Chorus 3]
So I heave my breath at burning wax
Cause I know that spark ain't coming back
And I heave my breath at burning wax
Cause that spark ain't coming back

[Outro]
It is my birthday
