so much has been running through my head lately, it's been hard to take a moment long enough to write it all down. This song seems to be the one consistent thing running through my head that was easy to Google, copy & paste. don't you wish thoughts and life could be so simple. i mean, i think that's why it's supposed to be an adventure. they'll say "life is an adventure, so you better enjoy it while it lasts". i guess that's why it's never easy. you have to work for it man. you gotta make it what you can make it, no matter what. going in with love and compassion not just for others, but for yourself. i don't know anymore. i need to get outta this place for a while. i need to feel like my life, my music and my ideals mean something more. i need to smile more. i need to forgive myself for all of my mistakes. i need to stop making mistakes. i need to kiss my son more. i need feeling something real again. i need to stop missing you so much...
How easily we forget,
How easily we comply.
Today are we even the splinter
On the hand that pulls the trigger?
They're still dropping bombs in the name of the city that we live in.
They're still dropping bombs in the name of the city that we live in.
If time has exhausted us, then fuck us all.
Holding solace in what we did
Can't get anything done today.
We feel self important too easily,
Backs are sore from the back patting.
Oh how easily we're pacified
By bullshit like TV shows on DVD.
It shouldn't take an election to remind us that there's a war on.
It shouldn't take a song
For us to come together and scream
That "We're still here and we're still pissed."
Remember the anger from five years ago.
Just like our parents, we've spent
Most of our twenties with a war on.
We leave legacies of tax-dollar land mines.
We're too caught up in our own shit
To consider, to consider any of it.
How easily we forget,
How easily we comply.
Today are we even the splinter
On the hand that pulls the trigger?
They're still dropping bombs in the name of the city that we live in.
