Cloud Nothings - The Mess Is Permanent Lyrics

I hate to bring it up
But if I may
The mess is permanent
And we're to blame
I didn't know enough
How to separate
The way you turn it up
From where you came

Oh, could it really get harder?
Oh, can we never evolve?
Or is it really just farther
Than we can ever go?
I wanna write a new ending
Where everybody is light
And they talk about saving
Whoever's left alive

Oh, it's hard to be in this city
Oh, it's hard to breathe in this town
Oh, it's hard to be in this place
When all these walls are coming down

Oh, it's hard to be in this city
Oh, it's hard to breathe in this town
Oh, it's hard to be in this place
When all these walls are coming down on you

The era's over now
The time is saved
The world you're living on
Is what you made
The air is colder now
The night sets in
It's looking permanent
Unfortunately

Oh, could it really get harder?
Oh, can we never evolve?
Or is it really just farther
Than we can ever go?
I wanna write a new ending
Where everybody is light
And they talk about saving
Whoever's left alive

Oh, it's hard to be in this city
Oh, it's hard to breathe in this town
Oh, it's hard to be in this place
When all these walls are coming down

Oh, it's hard to be in this city
Oh, it's hard to breathe in this town
Oh, it's hard to be in this place
When all these walls are coming down

On you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
Coming back down on you
