"Brace For Impact" lyrics

"Brace For Impact"

Another stint with depression
Another reality tv election
Watch the nuclear family fall out
Go and poison every house in this town
You get the call from a landline
Somebody finally put their foot
On that landmine
Watch a Jersey titan bow out
Take a step towards the front of the line now

I got one hand on you
Let the other one brace for impact
The life I lose
While I'm saving the one I still have
Wish it didn't have to go this way
And everything we love would always stay

A glass brick through the window
Dissect the U of A right down the middle
Watching a grown man cry
Sterilize the guilt of being white
The Big Bang in reverse
Lessons were bound to learn
Stockpile some pain
Keep a nice reserve
I wanna hold you I don't wanna hurt

I got one hand on you
Let the other one brace for impact
The life I lose
While I'm saving the one I still have
Wish it didn't have to go this way
And everything we love would always stay

I think I'll let you down in the way
That I'm afraid of and just around the blocks
A conversation of where we stand
Who are you holding as the sun explodes?
'Cause we'll be losing light every night
We'll start erasing the miles between
Us and what we've been escaping from
Where I stand
Cliff of the country
Front seat of my soul

I got one hand on you
Let the other one brace for impact
The life I lose
While I'm saving the one I still have
Wish it didn't have to go this way
And everything we love would always stay
