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

After listening to this song, I want not only to continue playing the guitar and drums, but also to live

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.

This was on my recommended, so glad I clicked. I like the 90's alt/dream-pop influence without overly reverbing the vocals like Slow Crush (still love em' tho), it's just really well-balanced. Really dig the guitar tone, too... WHO ARE YOU?
Shoegazy excellence. I have no words to describe this.
