Lots of words....we were going to keep all the choruses straight and just swing the last one...but y'know, we split up instead. Thanking John Jeremiah Sullivan for the 'sleepwalking kids' lift. Dude is a mad genius.

lyrics

Give a kid a box of matches
and what the hell you think will happen?
I don't never ever wanna not care
I don't never ever wanna not care no
show me what it's gonna look like
give me terrible and give me dark nights
give me rolling news and dumb conjecture
I'm America I will protect you but
what if nothing never comes down
no rockets raining on a small town?
what if nothing's never gonna happen here?
what if nothing's never gonna happen here?

I never ever believed that we'd be
these versions of the people we expected to be
we're old and we lost our direction back home
but we're never ever, we're never alone

for the smug and pretty perfect young kids
and their stupid clever stupid emptiness
I am a grown man and I'm not the only one
I'm a grown man and I'm not the only one who's
obsolete and pretty useless
fat on memories and recollections
I don't never ever wanna not care
I don't never ever wanna not care

I never ever believed that we'd be
these versions of the people we expected to be
we're old and we lost our direction back home
but we're never ever, we're never alone

they say all kids they sleepwalk through
the failures of their mums and dads
so what are we supposed to do?
you give us this so that's what we do
