Let's Show Them What Real Hands Can Do

lyrics

‘Cause we laugh and we laugh until our heads fall off
right onto laps until they roll along the walls
past the ghosts in the hall.
Turning heads, they will roll in their graves
until we make some kind of change.

But we laugh until we lapse then we laugh all the more.
We won’t settle the score, though it’s worth fighting for.
We are a generation of self un-motivation.

If you’re scared to fight,
just open up your heart tonight
‘cause if we die, it’s alright
because we can still admit that we tried
to explode the status quo,
explore all that’s left to know
‘cause when we’re gone,
then we’re gone,
and I’d prefer if we could say we fought on.

‘Cause we cry and we cry until our eyes are sore
and they bulge from our skulls like the bells of French horns.
The valves overflow and flood up the streets.

Monsoons come to break up the peace
just like the saltwater leaking from our eyes
that will pour right into our mouths, open wide,
until we drown from the byproduct of our cries.

If you’re scared to fight,
just open up your heart tonight
‘cause if we die, it’s alright
because we can still admit that we tried
to explode the status quo,
explore all that’s left to know
‘cause when we’re gone,
then we’re gone,
and I’d prefer if we could say we fought on.

‘Cause you laugh and you laugh until your head falls
and you laugh and you laugh and you don’t give a fuck.
This world has decayed, and it’s all up to me.
I’ll break some shit so that you can see.

This universe is expendable. You can bring nothing with you,
so work on something that can stay when you’re gone,
some kind of art that can live on and on.

So strive for infinity and reach for forever
and never say never unless you’re a liar.

So play me some songs I’ve been dying to hear.
Love, sing me to sleep, and I’ll lose this fear.
If this is it, then I’ll call up “quits” to let them know
that I’m done with it.

But if you’re scared to fight,
just open up your heart tonight
‘cause if we die, that’s alright
because we can still admit that we tried
to explode the status quo,
explore all that’s left to know
‘cause when we’re gone,
then we’re gone,
and I’d prefer if we could say we fought on.
