Hoodies And Hoods

HeadStrong

words leave me dry,


like swords leave my dying


i thought i knew you


i thought i knew you





so the sewer and the sky make the same sound


so i wonder where the wind comes from and what it whips around





i've gotta shatter these inadequacies


i'm down so low the devils on the level with me


and bearing arms to a chorus of car alarms


he's making good with a nation of hoodies and hoods





and all the worldwide sneers who got to you?


and all the satisfied who got to you?


and all the radiohead who got to you?


who broke the ranks, who pushed past and made it through?


and your convictions have all been abandoned


we're tv tired and we know you had a hand in it


and it's a posttraumatic world on the consciousness lip


i'm sick of this shit; i'm waking from the sleep tip





so the sewer and the sky make the same sound


so i wonder where the wind comes from and what it whips around





i've gotta shatter these inadequacies


i'm down so low the devils on the level with me


and bearing arms to a chorus of car alarms


he's making good with a nation of hoodies and hoods





you cannot save alternative radio


you cannot save prime time tv


my parent's split up, so now i'm fucked up


but when i snap my fingers you won't remember a thing anymore…





but now being hateful is so fucking fashionable


keep pointing fingers at anyone imaginable


keep eating caviar off vanity plates and say what you wanna say


keep bringing yesterday's future today





i've gotta shatter these inadequacies


i'm down so low the devils on the level with me


and bearing arms to a chorus of car alarms


he's making good with a nation of hoodies and hoods





you cannot save alternative radio


you cannot save prime time tv


my parent's split up, so now i'm fucked up


but when i snap my fingers you won't remember a thing anymore…
