Old enough to know but too young to care?

Retrace the steps we took on that long summer night.
In my mind, I'm back by your side.
Retrace the steps we took when we met worlds away.
Counting backwards while the stars are falling. 

Anberlin. Good times. I dunno about you, but when I listen to songs that I haven't listened to in a while, it brings back memories of when I used to listen to it a lot. 

I'm an album listener, meaning I listen to the whole album, first to last song without shuffle. Half the album on the way to class, second half on the way back. I can remember every intro to the song in the album, and sometimes humming or singing the next song of the album before the current one ends, I guess my brain works that way. Haha. Random.

Those four lines are taken from Anberlin's New Surrender album, titled Retrace. That part above is the last part of the song. The song is really emo with its lyrics and all, to be honest, but well, I really like it. 

The title is also taken from a song by Anberlin entitled Haight St.. Was just listening to the album on the way to college, with the lack of new stuff today, old stuff sounds new and oh so good.

I saw them live in Singapore back in.. ah, 2007! Had to search my blog through Google. They toured together with Copeland. Was such a treat.

So embarrassing to look back at how I used to write. Haha. Oh well. Here's the link to a post I made bout the Singapore Anberlin trip. Don't laugh, although I did, but don't! Heh.

brian.
