I wrote this while travelling in europe after the may day riot in Berlin

lyrics

Today I sucked my mood out from a medicated tube. And I could be abusing it....but there is too much confusing shit to cope, I’d rather choke on my tongue now that it is numb. Today was rearranged by an unexpected change of direction and destination, sending me back to the station to contemplate what makes me someone so fucking dumb. Sitting together on the stairs, he said to me, “The older I get, the less I seem to care....but it’s great to see kids throwing bottles at police in the streets. Five years ago that was me....” and I had to agree. Its great! But do they really have a cause? I mean aren’t half of them dependant on the long arm of the law they’re trying to break? Today expectations made were put aside and then replaced by a realized reality of mutual mediocrity and the inability for me to conquer me. Sitting together on the stairs, he said to me, “The older I get, the less I seem to care....but its great to see kids throwing bottles at police in the streets. Five years ago that was me....” and I had to agree. The older I get the less I care. The older I get the less I care. The older I get the less there is. But I’m aware that today I have friends who I could forget I ever knew until I nostalgically review the pictures to which they will be reduced to. Apparently everything is temporary. Why try to save what time can fade?
