Dress Your Wounds With Salt and Bleach

lyrics

I made a list of my thoughts. I tried to set it to music. But it was just smoke and mirrors. It didn't mean a thing. I went from home straight to work. Work, to the bus, to the bar. I stumbled home at 4am with nothing new to impart. Crumpled paper and a series of false starts. I'd rather be going nowhere than just be moving backwards. And if I'm going nowhere, I'd like to get it down in words. The real truth of it is that I'm sick of writing the same songs. It's the same sad list of complaints I'm always dragging around. I made a list of my thoughts. I tried to set it to music. But it was just smoke and mirrors. It didn't mean a thing. It's all smoke and mirrors. It'll never mean a thing. I'd rather be going nowhere than just be moving backwards. And if I'm going nowhere, I'd like to get it down in words. So when these songs are done putting the boots to us, we'll rise up, spitting teeth and blood. We're gonna dust off the last three months. We're gonna find our friends, face the summer sun and sing: "We're not beat down."
