lyrics

fake reality
you're living in a fake reality
can't you just be someone on a bench
can't you just be someone in the world
can't you just be someone in a bar
let yourself slide a slow slide
scream from the top of your bike
in the middle of the night

strap
my gloves on as tight as they will go
pretend to see yourself in front of you
and swing
don't stand too much for positive action
these days
don't stand too much on my own ground

fake reality
you're living in a fake reality
i blame the guy sitting next to me
i blame my mom

I've been waiting for these guys' record to come out for a long while, and it's sweet! Totally shreds but is also pensive and, at times, pretty. Happy and You Know It
