lyrics

Where is all the action at
I'm set up for a brutal disappointment
And I'm pretty sure this time it's all my fault
I'd love to see some dreams come true
I've dumbed them down to make them seem
More feasible and easier to see them followed through
I'm not unaware that I'm drowning an experience away
I've repressed the scare that

Two years from now
I'll learn that getting laid the same
And paid out by a giant corporation
Lacks the benefits I've hoped for
When I wished nothing would change
I didn't realize I was flying off infatuation

Now there's nothing I can say or do to prepare
For the time that I'll be wasting every day
I'll let this blank stare tell you

One small mistake
Pushed me back to where I was before today
And now I'm seeing that with
No one to blame
I'm not comfortable but bored
Which left me unimpressed and holding breath
While wasting here

If there was anybody listening
I'd tell you what went wrong
But I gave that opportunity up years ago
So I'll whisper it all to myself
And write another song
That nobody's ever gonna hear
It's been another boring year
Of shit I thought I wanted
Now I'm reaping what I sowed
Where did my purpose go
And all that it takes

Is just one small mistake
Pushed me back to where I was before today
And now I'm seeing that with
No one to blame
I'm not comfortable but bored
Which left me unimpressed and holding breath
While wasting here

Another great new album with great songs, particularly everything after the government warning song is amazing in my opinion, definitely a need to have in any Skate Punk playlist. B-FliP
