"It's very difficult to do, and also the people who do decide that they wanna do it. I go back and forth on whether we're onto anything or whether we're like the biggest idiots in the world"


[Verse 1]

On the day I found you

I found out that I had missed you cause you already quit

It took a while to process and reevaluate that I had to give a shit

If you forget about starting your revolution

You forget about saving your soul

Wish I was making strange friends in the desert

But I hope that I won't


[Verse 2]

I was there in solitude in my 8 by 14 LED pit

And I was never one to finish a fight

But I had always drеamed of starting it

You said "A punk rock song won't ever changе the world, but I can tell you 'bout a couple that changed me"

And I'm so happy that the stupid bastard that wrote most of them is finally fucking free


[Verse 3]

Well I hope you found peace writing computer programs

Hope your veins are still as clean as can be

I know it ain't my business but the city is still killing me

And I know you said you don't like singing your old songs

You've got better ones still in your head

So from one DM to another let the players do the singing instead

So I dip this pen in arsenic

I write a song for every president

That won't ever get shot in the face

And I'll wrap these strings in plastic explosives

Head down to the courthouse

With one chord I'll level the place

But hasn't anybody learned?

Don't ever trust a man that plays guitar

The day I rob a bank's the first day I'm not lying

To you or me about what I believe
