Your skin's in my mouth but I'm thinkin' about   Thousands of things that don't got your name   So, I'm distant and weird we stop and you're all ears   But how can I say      I've just been thinking how it's harder every year   To find excuses that'll keep me in the clear   The arbitrary lines I impress in the sand   The proof that piles in my trash can      While the skin on my hands is looking older every day   The lies I've told have turned to leather on my face   The love I've lost has turned to needles in my heart   But I'm to blame for all the bad parts   They're the choices I've made, hey hey      That's when I turn my face away and I watch the debates   Now, I can't see straight   Take abortion away and both sides are just the same   So I'm not sure why I vote 'cause I just don't know   What difference it makes      It seems to me we get the same shit from them both   Reform don't work I think it's time we tried revolt   But I don't got the guts to jump up and go first   So I just shout until my throat hurts and I curse and I curse      At what we fucked up in Iraq, you say support the troops   I do, I want them all brought back and every building   That you bombed raised from the ground   And pull your contractors the fuck out      If you really go and reinstate the draft   You'll straight away just split the country straight in half   So try arresting everyone who sends their draft cards back   I'll be returning mine in no time flat      In a sense we're the same, struggling to save face   It's a question of scope   How far you're willing to go to make rights of your wrongs   Despite the risk involved it's a question of faith      'Cause if we wait until we've all been burned to ash   To tell the truth about the shit buried in our past   We'll split a taxi to that fire pit way down south   So, let's rise up and open our mouths      'Cause you remind me that it's harder every year   To find excuses that'll keep me in the clear   The arbitrary lines I impress in the sand   The proof that piles in my trash can      And if you really go and reinstate the draft   You'll straight away just split the country straight in half   So try arresting everyone who sends their draft cards back   I'll be returning mine in no time flat
