lyrics
I know it wasn’t me who thought
“From sea to shining sea” sounds cools enough
To kill my way from one to another
And i know it wasn’t you
Packing the kids back into schools
Make sure the stores are open people gotta spend money
We’re just caught up in the middle
An open ocean and the waves are getting high
One voice has never felt so little
Sending out ripples in the ever changing tide
Hold your prayers now
Because the sun is going down
And it’s hard to look to heaven
When up above it’s only smoke instead of sky
And it damn sure wasn’t nice
To write that some votes would count twice
As much as yours
But as least we got the day of work
Don’t forget you can take breaks
From politics and saving face
But sure post your status, tag your best friends
You’ll convince them
We’re just caught up in the middle
An open ocean and the waves are getting high
One voice has never felt so little
Sending out ripples in the ever changing tide
Why should I even love my neighbor
You never know who could be living over there
Don’t wanna think about the real world
this thinking it just makes me fucking scared
Hold your prayers now
Because the sun is going down
And it’s hard to look to heaven
When up above it’s only smoke instead of sky
