I know it wasn't me
Who thought "from sea to shining sea"
Sounds cool enough to kill my way from one to another
And I know it wasn't you
Forcing the kids back into schools
Make sure the stores are open people gotta spend money
We're just caught up in the middle
An open ocean where the waves are getting high
A voice that never felt so little
Sending out ripples in an ever-changing tide
So hold your prayers now
Because the Sun is going down
And it's hard to look to heaven
When up above it's only smoke instead of sky
It damn sure wasn't nice
To write that some votes would count twice as much as yours
At least we've got a day off work
Don't forget you can take breaks
From politics and saving face
Sure post your status, tag your best-friends
You'll convince them
That we're just caught up in the middle
An open ocean where the waves are getting high
A voice that never felt so little
Sending out ripples in an ever-changing tide
Should I even love my neighbor?
You never know who could be living over there
Don't wanna think about the real world
Cause all this thinking it just makes me fucking scared
So hold your prayers now
Because the Sun is going down
And it's hard to look to heaven
Yeah it's hard to look up now
I said it's hard to look to heaven
When up above it's only smoke instead of sky
