Brawling through the headlights in the pouring rain
Not a mouth unbled, not a body slain
Stilettos drawn, call out his name, swinging bottles and brass knuckles
but today it ain’t the same
Sophistry takes its pound of flesh
We once lived simpler lives, we once used knives
Now we’re just a shell under a second spell
Sane times have gone by the wayside but I’ll try
To live right till I die
Don’t take any stock in what they see or read
Barreling blindly through history
Gotta get a grip on reality
There’s a trigger warning on everyone you see
How much tragedy will it take to pry
Away arcane ideas from old dumb minds?
We’ll know when, our sights are turned to them
