What we know is exactly enough
It’s practice or preach and its right off the cuff
And I’m trying to reach my hand down the throat of the wolf that took your time
Dirty whirl of basement blues
Forget it all when I turn off the news
What it means to me is what it means to you but that ain’t new
Written off my last line of worth
Chasing the dark again to see what I unearth
Future problems pulled back to the present
Future worries pushed back to the past
We’re in a paradise when we close our eyes
You’ll never bring me back to those ugly skies
What it means to me is what it means to you but that ain’t new
I’m sitting down on the steps with a friend
Counting down the times we laughed away the sins
How much longer will we follow trends that don’t make sense
I can't stand the ones that fade and never make amends
I see a valley of faces with promising eyes
Leaving behind traces of their demise
What it means to me is what it means to you but that ain’t new
Do they try to rope you in with twisted words
Do they watch you crumble as they gather in herds
