lyrics

Turtlenecks over Nazi tattoos
I’m teaching her those well-worn suburban blues
Rocky’s down in the parking lot
Kids get hurt when kids get hot
Kids get hurt when kids get hot

There’s a car outside
There’s a car outside
But I don’t think you want to take that ride

Quarters up for one last stand
Fresh red blood on a bright white Mustang
Sleeper cell boys are playing dumb
Hoping that that's not blood but cum

There’s a car outside
There’s a car outside
But I don’t think you want to take that ride

We were all trying to explode
Some of us succeeded, Martyrs for all seasons
Some of us succeeded, Martyrs for no reason
Smoke the ashes (x2) and say goodnight

Goodbye
