island time - great comma thanks lyrics
pretend i don’t see you looking as we pass on the street
not sure which side you’re on—are you with them, are you with me
know i need to get back to you, you wanna hear from me
but i’m trying to make sense of all of this and where it leads
your messages are reminders that i’ve been out of reach
i recall a time i was sure we both hated n*z*s
i’m sick of this timeline, please can i switch realities
somewhere with no peoplе, news, hate, or fear
i need somе island time
trying to get by
i sit and wonder why
trust is in short supply
going out costs more than ever, but staying in is free
no plans to start a family, but my phone is a tv
front row seat while the billionaires plunder the treasury
and somehow convince people they are saving the country
have food dropped at my door by someone that i’ll never meet
conditioned to maintain maximum productivity
it’s time to stand up, fight back
so let’s plan to start next week
for now i’ll just dissociate and dream
that i’m on island time
laugh until i cry
try and believe the lie
that everything is fine
these days it feels like that part of middle school history
where you think, “how could so many good people let this be”
but now you know that we all see just what we want to see
even if it means denying the real state of things
of course it’s hard to know what even is reality
manifesting our own echo chambers eternally
one day we’ll pretend that no one saw it coming, that the trumpets didn’t sound
that we were all thinking there were reasons plenty not to feel down
and then suddenly a bolt of lightning sp*wned the monster here on earth
one little problem with that telling is that we raised him here since birth
we looked for one big shoe to drop, one bomb to fall
but it’s a million little drops that all add up to make the levy break
the markets shake
the violent quake
that made the lake
that made the sea
that took you far away from me
stranded here with their thoughts and prayers
doesn’t seem right but life’s not fair
what time is it? i’m late for work
need to get up and change my shirt
please try to find me, try to reach me
on island time
