My generation has been shouldered with debts it will never be able to pay, and insurmountable obstacles, while certain elder generations can only scoff and patronize. A lot of of frustration and disdain towards them went into these lyrics.
lyrics
All my friends seem hyper-familiar
All my friends seem terribly vague
All my friends are contradictions
All my friends are a spreading plague
All my friends offer good advice to me
Good advice that I never take
All my friends aren't afloat of the water
Why can't my friends just eat cake
Drifting closer to the edge
Much closer than before
I feel it crawling up my back
I can feel it more and more
All my friends are one in a billion
And another and probably more
All my friends were promised a city
None of my friends can settle the score
All my friends can't make you happy
They can only watch you from under the waves
All my friends are carrying weights
That they'll probably carry long past the grave
Drifting closer to the edge
Much closer than before
I feel it crawling up my back
I can feel it more and more
Drifting closer to the edge
Kicked in the ribs straight out the door
We'll not accept your blame again
Neither now nor ever more

Fun, bright post-punk that emulates the bands I grew up with so well that I honestly had to check and make sure the album wasn't a re-release from 1984. So glad this came up in my recommended feed. modestwriggles
