Release The Hounds 歌词

all swelled with pride, your chest blown out face the flag as you declare "we are the greatest country in the world richest, smartest, most advanced... who can keep up with us?" and where has it gotten us? take a look around as miserable as we have ever been violent, mean, pulling our hair out as fourteen year olds march through metal detectors bitter, unhealthy, empty most dissatisfied of societies my granddad weeps for the simple days everything that you could ever dream of five minutes from our fingertips prettied, processed, packaged, shipped right to your door we need everything in every color to feel that we're alive we've got to brag to all the world about all our toys just like when we were five i hear you chant "everything is alright, it's gonna be alright" as you rush to your night job everything is gonna be alright knuckles white as you grip your purse you scream that things could not be better as the flames lick at your face and i'm as fucked as anybody the bright lights catch my eyes i'm as scared as anyone the blood rains from the sky we can't tell what we want from what we need or which one matters more it's all a spinning mobile it's all a catchy lullaby everything is gonna be alright so suck your thumb
