lyrics

It's so telling that we're sweating the small stuff
Every time the government shifts, there's a mob
The ever-present gaslight glow of reality TV news shows can get so old

You can go deaf from all the noisy things they say
If we're gonna fight to death in an argument, I won't talk
Lately I've been thinking all out loud and at once
and giving the bad things on our minds anymore of our time is just wasteful

So inappropriately scared of the big stuff
It's getting even harder to relate at all
Every single problem posed gets debated, then wholly ignored
I expected more

Are we ever gonna hold these clowns accountable?

Letting your face get pushed so close to the stones you throw makes you a stone yourself
Meeting the world with an open palm can get you ready to catch yourself before you fall
