Backroom Lyrics by Oliver Walker

Misery Machine

2025

[Verse]
When I was 6 years old
I saw a building that was burning down
They had the name of it carved into gold
I wish that building there was still around
When I was 8 years old
I watched a movie I had never seen
I got a camera, it was made of gold
And since that day I dream the same dream

[Chorus]
But are you getting old?
(But are you getting old?)
Are you getting old?
I don’t know

Are you getting old?
Are you getting old?
I don’t know

[Post-Chorus]
I’m on the internet
If you need me, you can call my name
If you see me, you can point in shame
You can point in shame
But are you getting old?
Are you gеtting old?
I don’t know!

[Verse]
When I was 10 years old
I made a moviе with all of my friends
I lost the disc, I didn’t keep it safe
I wish that I could watch that film with them
I saw them build that building up again
When I was 12 years old
I saw the building burning down and then
I saw them write my name in gold

[Chorus]
So are you getting old?
Are you getting old?
(I don’t know)
I don’t know

[Outro]
I’m sitting in the backroom
Waiting for you
We could watch a movie or two
I’m sitting in the backroom
For you
We could watch the TV
What should we do?
