[Verse 1]
She says I'm no good with my hands
But I'd hold up the whole sky for her
I want to forget my future and jump into the dark

[Verse 2]
I would've caused so much trouble
If I'd had you to sneak out with me
All our future's melted in your hands, they're drowning us

[Chorus]
Still I say things like, "No hindsight in 2020"
"Got my sight checked, that's precious to me"
"Can't blindside me, I'm well aware
If you were me, I'd burn this out
To the sound of the daylight slipping from me"
"All our yesterdays spent misguided, sliding'"
And now our heels worn down and self aware
With dreams of stopping

[Interlude]
You must have me messed up with somebody else
You got me mixed up
You got me stressed out
Youth spent plaited under walls, waterfalls
Walls can talk to things like
(Dreams of stopping, dreams of stopping)
(Dreams of)
You must have me messed up with somebody else
You got me mixed up
You got me stressed out
Youth spent plaited under walls, waterfalls
Walls can talk to things like

[Chorus]
Still I say things like, "No hindsight in 2020"
"Got my sight checked, that's precious to me"
"Can't blindside me, I'm well aware
If you were me, I'd burn this out
To the sound of the daylight slipping from me"
"All our yesterdays spent misguided, sliding"
And now our heels worn down and self aware
With dreams of stopping
With dreams of stoppi–
Dreams worth stopping for

[Outro]
You know, our progress is just really slow because we're trying to just find ways through

EDEN

Jonathon Ng (born 23 December 1995), better known by his stage name EDEN, is an Irish electronic music producer turned singer-songwriter based in Dublin, Ireland. He formerly operated as The Spab Project, and would upload random songs and projects onto SoundCloud. After he had outgrown that phase, he changed his name to The Eden Project, an alias that was discontinued in 2015. Ng’s work as The Eden Project typically featured more conventional styles of electronic dance music such as dubstep and drum and bass, while EDEN saw him venturing into a more indie pop style. He made this alias change in April 2015, after the release of Final Call.

In an interview for Billboard, EDEN gives a little information about himself. He didn’t enjoy his school’s music subjects, yet started writing music at the early age of 7 or 8, and even performed in a band with some of his friends at the age of 13 or 14.

EDEN’s main inspirations are varied. He enjoyed Rihanna while at school, whereas his current musical inspiration ranges from Kendrick Lamar to even Hans Zimmer.
