Pacific Bird - Labor Day

It seems like we've given up
It's Christmas day cause we're still buying bullshit
I can't believe we all forgot
That Christmas really comes on Monday with a picnic
And now it seems we're past that prime
Complacency is streaming straight through the bloodline
I hope oh please oh god I wish
Please let us be better than the rest

"We want more schools
and less jails..."
"...More books
and less arsenals"
Straight to hell
for you unfortunates
And they'll still tell us
Nobodies extortionate

Here's to all the ones that died
Branded heathens for false crimes
I'm sorry we've forgotten
All the fruits of sacrifice
Exploited anyway
But it's all to say
It's September now
Fuck Halloween and Thanksgiving
It's Labor Day

I'm sick of throwing away chances
I'm sick of hearing to grow up
So here's to all the advances
And here's to hoping we keep it up

Keep lighting fires
Law and order's making crimes
We see it everyday
We see it all the time
Feverishly we light
the ivy at the root
It's not enough
Till this ground is bathed in soot

Here's to all the ones that died
Branded heathens for false crimes
I'm sorry we've forgotten
All the fruits of sacrifice
Exploited anyway
But it's all to say
It's September now
Fuck Halloween and Thanksgiving
It's Labor Day
