"86" lyrics

"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 come for 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
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 while 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
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
