I sit down and listen to the stories and notice my generation is going so wrong.

I see friends and family resorting to crime and drugs to escape... Some of us go to war and come back scarred and broken inside..

Then the feeling hits me... I just wanna go back to when things were nice.
But what can i do? I'll drag these feelings forever.

My big wish in life now is to be able to help someone else. I don't wanna see those who are little kids now being dragged in to the same situation later in their life.. But i have to help myself before i help others, yeah? :/

Unfortunately, that's known as the Golden Age Fallacy. Things weren't ever all that nice, you just didn't notice. You cannot again be a person who doesn't notice.

It's harsh, but it helps if you can get away from looking for good in the past and start trying to find things that are good now, or ways you can make things good in the future. I agree with what you said in the end, take care of yourself, get yourself on solid ground, and then you're in a position where you can reach out and get someone else onto that same ground.

Yeah, but i don't think the nostalgia will ever fade. I bet It's gonna be easier to endure in the future though.
