lyrics

Raisin’ hell in wayne county / with a copper on our tail / hoping that he drives on by me / but knowing this town he’ll probably throw us in jail / we’re both so paranoid in our hometown / there’s so much unclaimed baggage at the carousels / and though we’re guilty of nothing / we feel like fugitives running / towards the great white north or a border town in mexico / there’s former you, there’s former me / we’re telling tales of revisionist history / ah, remember the days we couldn’t hardly wait to end? / I was getting fucked up with a high school friend / wondering where all the good times went / we left town the minute we turned 18 / we moved to different corners of the country / now we come back for holidays and funerals / so much has changed but wayne county is still the same / driving down 191, theres an old memory of someone / as a little white cross just popping out from the bend / I was getting fucked up with a high school friend / wondering where all the good times went / don’t let the overwhelming sorrow shred all hopes of tomorrow / don’t let ‘em tell ya how to live your life / ‘cause they may never understand / but its okay because I do / we know all the ups and downs each other have been through.

The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world. But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur

Fun, abrasive, loud punk rock. Not all PUP does it for me but this album hits Brandon Phipps
