lyrics

I hitchhiked out of our city with an apple in my... throat.
Sure I'd miss every little fraction of my friends and those ten (or so) listeners,
But hate mongers will burn my city to the ground,
With the help of hipsters who'd have you believe that;
Vinyl is pivotal,
That Dubstep is biblical,
And that these words will not mean shit.

But I insist on integrity in my every line,
And it may sound like shit to you, but at least I will know it's mine.
And I will scream until I'm sick of how you lie and fix your hair,
While Josh and Robyn write for reason, not for dumb pussy and treason;

With only one hope; To stick your end away.
With only one need.
With only one dream; To stand upon a stage and blaspheme to impressionable children.

I look for people who feel, think and deal when I need something...
To kill my sperm count that little bit faster, so my bloodline will end right here.
As I am a selfish, contorted, broken, arrogant, hateful, sociopathic motherfucker;

With only one hope; To always be like this.
With only one need.
With only one dream; That these nightmares never end.
To remind me to stand to arms.

Because
I am proud of the things that I've done,
And I am proud of the people I love.
Yes I am so proud of the things that we've done,
And I am so proud of the people we've become.

And it only took 24 years.
