PM LEWIS - In The City Now/In The 90s Lyrics

In the city now
With the concrete and the buildings
(And the trees)
You're still in the country
With the trees
(And the buildings and concrete)
Barefoot after years in skates
Each step seems harsh and bound to break
My knees
An empty seat
A phantom limb
A bored and aching heart
The ringing in my ears after a show
The sudden screaming barricade of silence
This is all too real
Yet still
I know it's not
I know it's just
A moment
A spark of clarity and/or psychosis
And as I head back
Towards the trees
Only one thought
Stays concrete
Without you
I would need a god
In the 90s
We were just dumb kids
Doing dumb kid shit
Like breaking in
To the gas station
And stealing mountain dew
In the 90s
We were just dumb kids
Doing dumb kid shit
Like sneaking in
To garages
And huffing cans of glue
We didn't know
What lied ahead
Or who would live
And who'd be dead
We didn't know
What lied ahead
Or who would live
And who'd be dead
In the 90s
We were just dumb kids
Doing dumb kid shit
Like finding out
About justin
A bullet went through his cousin's head
And landed in his face
He walked back to his place
With all the blood pouring down his
Dead kennedys shirt
And no one stopped
To see if he was hurt
We didn't know
What lied ahead
Or who would live
And who'd be dead
We didn't know
How right we were
That no one cared
We didn't know
How right we were
To be so scared
In the 90s
We were just dumb kids
Doing dumb kid shit
Like trying our best
To forget
