lyrics

KEEP LOOKING

They tried to convince us our anger was a youthful lust
but the older I get, the more I’m driven to resist
and I’ll never understand how punks become conservatives
it was never in their hearts, they broke all their promises
and I’m not saying that people shouldn’t change
coz change is the only constant in my mind
but don’t let them tempt you with status and security
coz they orchestrated the destruction of our society

CHORUS:
If in the future, you’re looking for me
You’ll probably still find me, looking out to sea
so if you walk the coastline and keep your eyes peeled
You’ll probably still find me, looking for a better world.

Sometimes society is just too cruel
Coz we’re taught to be greedy, and the leaders are fools
and the only real comfort lies in nature’s truths
the darkness and emptiness that crushes you.
These mountains were here long before us
and the waves keep on crashing without a fuss
and the flowers find ways to bloom through the concrete
and the storms hurry in to electrify us.

When I see friends having kids of their own
I see this is bigger than anything we’ve ever known
coz nihilism’s easy if you only love yourself
but it takes more to think bigger than your health, and your wealth
to find a reason to keep fighting
through these dark times
to find optimism in the stories
of those who made sure we could still be here.

Tell me why is it easier to imagine the end of the world
than to imagine the end of this inequality;
apocalypse nightmares of Hollywood movies.
Instead, I dare you dream of utopia with me -
No more aristocracy, or first world hypocrisy
we’d get rid of austerity, then maybe we could all be free.

Keep on fighting, keep on looking
for a future that isn’t polluted
with their poison and divisive politics
THERE’S NOTHING BROKEN THAT WE CANNOT FIX!
