86

I was born in '86, a Pacific wonderland
Called The Great Northwest
Took a liking to the road, thought I'd
Find myself out there in the great unknown
If I'd only known it'll catch you
One day kid, when you're least expecting it
And trust me, there's things
Ain't worth remembering
Can you heal? Can you heal?
At the feet of what has broken you
I mean for real, like for real for real
If it's all an illusion, guess I'll transform
It all into some kind of ride to get us the hell out of here!
86'd, what a trip
I won't sleep 'till I know I'm dead
And knowing me I'm soon to rise again
I can't stay down for very long
But knowing me, soon to rise again
What a trip, what a trip, 86
What a trip, what a trip, 86
It's a scam, it's a scam, I don't owe you shit
That's between me and him
What I change is just for me
Let the music speak for itself, now it's on repeat
Oh, the irony!
What's the point anyway?
Is this planetarium safe?
When I die will I come back as a sacred text?
They'll be singing Rock of Ages
As they cry into my pages
Boy, they fooled themselves
But there's a silver lining
86'd, what a trip
I won't sleep 'till I know I'm dead
And knowing me I'm soon to rise again
I can't stay down for very long
But knowing me, soon to rise again
What a trip, what a trip, 86
What a trip, what a trip, 86
