tell me what you know
then tell me what you did when you were here
and think about the things you said you didn't say
and try to wipe the past away and make amends
we'll show you how it really ends
you're so caught up in deadly trends
you don't even know what kind of message that sends
it's a long, long road from here to exposure
but we won't give up without some fucking closure
you knew it wouldn't last,
but i had expectations
i'll keep holding it down just for this lasting generation
now i think i've found myself,
a feeling that I've never felt
now I think I've found myself
a feeling that you never felt
so tell me what you know
then tell me what you did when you were here
and think about the things you said you didn't say
and try to put the past away
tell me what you know
and this year's the fucking worst
like it's all just been rehearsed
and the time i've spent reflecting friends and family is cursed
don't you think that i would like to
have a car and pay all my dues
tell me where that day jobs got you
cuz we both know that's not what you wanna do
every single plan you made fell apart at the seams
and I guess I'll never understand
