HOGWASH LYRICS

"This Is Not A Method (This Is A Provocation)"

We've been around, we've seen a lot
Not crazy amounts but just enough
To understand there's no use in pretending to be someone
Some things made us laugh, some were quite depressing
And in the end we still play that game
Though we know we can't win it

We shot then we aimed, we'll be backwards till the end
But we're participating

Last night I thought I'd try meditation
I came up with a bunch of resolutions

We'll stop simulating growing pains, we're in our late twenties
Quit backstabbing all of our friends
And then talk about integrity
And we'll stop believing in the ghost of punk-rock past

It may be strange but without rage we actually look like we managed
To overcome not to become bitter, jealous or jaded
But we will admit that's not how we planned it
And in the end we still play that game
Though we know we can't win it

We shot then we aimed, we'll be backwards till the end
But we're participating

Last night I thought I'd try meditation
I came up with a bunch of resolutions

We'll stop simulating growing pains, we're in our late twenties
Quit backstabbing all of our friends
And then talk about integrity
And we'll stop believing in the ghost of punk-rock past
We won't look back

This is a steal, a thrill, a contribution
But it's not a plan
This is our life, our drive
It's not a method, it's a provocation

It'll all end up in contention and friction
Can't wash away this permanent impression
