    Look at your world
    Isn't it beautiful to drain
    How much is it worth
    When there's nothing left for you to take
    Oh, what a privilege it is getting old
    I hope i live to be so cynical
    Why should we dare to live forever
    If nobody cares to change for the better
    Yeah
    Yeah
    Leaving a trace
    Building a monolith so large
    They can see it from space
    A scar that remains until you're dead and gone
    Oh, what a privilege it is getting old
    I hope i live to be so cynical
    Why should we dare to live forever
    If nobody cares to change for the better
    Yeah
    Yeah
    Do we bloom or decay
    Nothing golden ever stays
    Do we burn out or fade
    When there's nothing left to drain
    Oh, what a privilege it is getting old

      As Bill Wurtz of "History of the Entire World, I Guess" fame would say about your first sentence, "You could make a religion out of this!". I'd definitely be a devout follower of it - so long as it gives the utmost accurate history, science, philosophy, etc. OK, if not the utmost accurate of those (who knows what future people will learn, after all), then I'll even settle for just that lyric.

    It's good to be alive still. The bitersweetness of shoegazy riffs ending in Maj7 chords paired with lyrics I want to share with my daughter makes this one genius act that completes the picture. Alternative music is no longer confused or hedonistic or hopeless and has something to say, wether you mean it or not.

    I hear those chords of Mercedes on the guitar and I go back in time when I was 14 years old. It was at that time when I discovered rock thanks to Nirvana in 1999 listening to a cassette of the album "nevermind" with a friend. Since then I wanted to be a guitarist. Today, at 35 years old, I have never stopped. Music is a kind of time machine. It transports you to where you want to go.
