Stitch

There are whispers of corruption in the government again
Urban development's infecting the street I grew up in
Under party thumbs I struggle to care and just get stoned
And there are pigs parked next door all the damn time
I'm not afraid of the impending doom, I'm desensitised
Part of me would give my life for the destruction of mankind
So every time I kiss you, I'm conflicted on being alive
Cos you remind me that life is worth saving
You give me something to love in a nightmare

So let the walls of the cages lose opacity
So every person on this Earth can catch a glimpse of living free
Might be a jungle out there but it's a dog fight in here
And we're finding our escape route tonight

The world outside this house is falling down
We're doing things most people wouldn't ever do if they knew how
Let's light em up and send our declaration of war
And just sing Erik's songs till the sun dawns
In search of all that cannot be monopolised
Away from prying hands, tobacco taxes, disregard statelines
Burning down the highways, all our love, all our rage
You touch my hand and baby, everything's okay
You're by my side so everything must be okay

So let the walls of the cages lose opacity
So every person on this Earth can catch a glimpse of living free
Might be a jungle out there but it's a housefire in here
And we're finding our escape route tonight

The world outside this house is falling down
We're doing things most people wouldn't ever do if they knew how
Let's light em up and send our declaration of war
And just sing Riley's songs till the sun dawns
And you'll sing along as the sun dawns
I'll see the light touch your face as the sun dawns
I'll know I'm really alive when the sun dawns
