lyrics

Long time whats going on?
I dont know, nothing at all
No ones cool, no ones kind
everyones so closed minded

Dont have to try to hear the sound
Of those old places closing down
Shut down the spots we hated
And something worse took their place
But its all right
you can stay here
Were not going anywhere
Its all right stayin here

Down to the park on Friday night
Some kid smoking in the lamplight
Learning lines to some punk song
Somebody had their bass on them
If we were anywhere else
Im not sure wed recognize ourselves
But if you were born three years to either side
There was someone to find you

Over the wall to somewhere new
I know I because I was there too
May you stay yourself when you hear about somebody else
So gone you just cant even imagine
So close you can reach out and grab it
Answers there in your past
But you mumble when anybody asks

Look back on something gone
Its like, what was it at all?
Its hard not to laugh or start to bawl
When you say,
I remember it all

So many people afraid of whats coming
so many people ashamed of where theyre from
If youre mad I suggest you lose it
Some other people
They didnt have music
