lyrics

It's times like these I wanna fly away.
Accept the fact that I won't die today.
Save my bitchin' for another day.
Just get high on smack and lemonade.

Contemplate another suicide.
Scratch the scars I barely try to hide.
Dream of days when I was in my prime
when Kurdt said angst was such a bore.

Hold on it's gettin' better.
I got a letter.
We sing the songs they say to sing
just like we're told.

Hold on it's gettin' better
Feet tied together
Bound up like punk rock Botticellis
in the cold.

It's been so long they've had us under check
we barely feel the noose around our neck.
What a foolish ****ing waste of time
we spend forcing ourselves into lines.

Hold on it's gettin' better.
I got a letter.
We sing the songs they say to sing
just like we're told.

Hold on it's gettin' better.
Feet tied together.
Tied up like punk rock Botticellis
in the cold.

Hold on it's gettin' better.
It's in the letter.
It's in the sweater songs we sing
as we grow old.
