Fast River - Punch the Lights Out

I ate nine-dollars-ninety-eight cents of chicken soup
Then we all fell asleep in the bathroom
We partied all night like hardcore wrecking balls
At the home of Albert Jr.
We danced like we had no cares at all
We sang like bombs could start falling at any moment
We prayed that love would save us all
But the drugs we took got us all shook and then and then and then
Somebody said something that we didn't like
So we took them for a long ride
Somebody said something that we didn't like
There was only goddamn thing to do
Gotta punch the lights out
We all used to be a bunch of young lovers before this war
Now we're all just pretty old liars
It gets harder each day to believe in America
As we watch the skies burn so much goddamn brighter
And no one knows what's really going on
But we all feel a little bit safer when we watch Anderson Cooper
It seems that we're headed for a fall
In a fish tank filled with rocks and sand we found out there's no promised land
Somebody said something that we didn't like
So we took them for a long ride
Somebody said something that we didn't like
There was only goddamn thing to do
Gotta punch the lights out
And maybe someday when there's paradise
Maybe it's been hiding right in front of our eyes
Maybe someday it'll be alright
But the anger burns inside
And every day we hurt we feel so much more alive
Somebody said something that we didn't like
So we took them for a long ride
Somebody said something that we didn't like
There was only goddamn thing to do
Gotta punch the lights out
