lyrics

Public Transit
Lets take to the streets and relish in thoughts of anarchy
think back to when such thoughts made sense,
On city corners, sing and dance,
distortion fueled inspired awe against the uninspired all and take the public transit to tomorrow.
All huddled in our secret clubs, anonymous unbridled laws
spazmatic grins from ear to ear unsettled by unspoken fears
that one day we will be older
stuck in meetings stacking paper
hoping that one day we could return.

And I died the day I realized that a nihilist could die
tragedy past the point of bringing one to speak the word "why?"
So I will start today and ask "don't let your colors fade"
Cause
True Dreamers Never Can Die.

Lets take to the floor and find out what our body's good for not
distinguish between love and lust, just move till our parts start to rust
On springtime hills we'd claim and lay and think of the lives we've yet to pave
Let the air bring our wits to their end.

And I died the day I realized that a nihilist could die
tragedy past the point of bringing one to speak the word "why?"
So I will start today and ask "don't let your colors fade"
Cause
True Dreamers Never Can Die.

They said we're never gonna make it
Make this life go our way
But if means becoming as bitter as you've become
I think I'd rather stay.
