Cold War

I'm seeing something very curious
I swear to god nobody listens to me
I'm serious
You don't need a degree
To see the world is full its fillin up its full
And now you're talking all that
And that shit is bull
You're not trying, You're not trying to get closer to me
You're not trying to get closer to me
You know the city is a timebomb lets get buried in the basement
And the end is just beginning and you'll never know who's winning
But everybody's talking bout getting married
Everybody's talking bout having babies
Everybody's talking bout making money
Everybody's talking bout going to work
Domesticity. Homeland Security, Celebrity
You know I never thought you'd be the kinda little girl who just,
I never thought you'd be the kinda guy who doesn't give a fuck
You're not tryin, You're not trying to do it better today
You're not trying to do it better today
You know the city is in meltdown, lets get married in the kitchen
And you're sleepin in a blackout and your mind is in remission
And everybody's talking bout making money
Everybody's talking bout buying houses
Everybody's talking bout having babies
Everybody getting up and going to work
Don't listen cause the walls are coming down
Convention but the walls are coming down
Estrangement but the walls are coming down
Keep pushing cause the walls are coming down
Violent Pornography, Police Brutality, Ethnicity
Wanna know whats so fuckin funny bout peace love and understanding
You know war's still over if you want it but you gotta want it want it!
Whatever happened to tune in drop out, whatever happened to fuck the police
(you're not trying, you're not tryin..)
