State of the World Lyrics

The world is not lost

We can turn around still

We could burn it down

Keep our towns still

But somethings not working

Its clear all around here

The haze has been building

We can't see the ground here

And how can we drink it

If we know that we're downstream

From the money making building

Where everything is brown still

It's impossible now

To live off this land

Greedy corporations

Have all played a hand

The landlord wants more

And so ive got a plan

So lets burn all our cash

And just live in my van

The world is not lost

We've got miles to go still

Or we could go home

I still feel hopeful

If and if that dont work out

We'll move to the country

And built our own house

At least we'll have something

To hang over our heads

When winter starts dumping

And when we get hungry

I guess we'll go hunting

And what will we tell them

When somebody comes here

And says that they're a drummer

And we already have one here

Well im sure we'll still take em

It will all become clear

That there's enough bacon

To feed everyone here

The world is not lost

We've got the ground still

And we've got each other

At least you're around still

And we won't become

Like everyone else

Selling their souls

Living for themselves

I'll call you my family

If you call me your friend

You don't have to ask me

You know what i meant

But feel free to question

If things don't make sense

Some shit might go down

And in that event

Don't cling to me close

Or go where you're sent

Just fight with your claws

And speak with your chest

My hope is not lost

That things could still shake out

But maybe we should hold hands

In case we don't it make it

Out
