lyrics

Don't worry, I won't hurt you. I just need something to blame. I've done all that I can think of, but nothing feels the same. Nothing left to turn to when the nostalgia starts to fail. And I'm not one to crucify, but can I sell you some nails? Doctor will you take me back? The pills don't work, I'm still a wreck. The last time I got what I needed was when I heard change and I believed it. Fuck off 1999, it's 2008 again. When climate change was years away. When institutions kept me safe. Remember when you could say you had faith? When reruns of the Office weren't the thing that kept you sane? Remember how it felt to be convinced like there was nothing in this world that the system wouldn't fix? Hello? Don't leave me here alone. Play the song again. You think you have control, but everybody knows it's all for show, and that is why you vote for Christians who would waterboard Christ. The CIA would waterboard Christ, and you'd watch him die before your eyes like it's 2008 again. Fuck off 1999, it's 2008 again. Fuck off 1984, it's 2008 again. Fuck off 1945, it's 2008 again. Remember when you could turn on the TV and felt like you could stomach what you see? Remember when it wasn't all so bleak? I'd do anything to go back so I don't have to see what's coming next.
