lyrics
I was unaware that’s how you thought
about the questions
that keep some people up at night until
it’s not even nighttime
You seemed to spot the dropoff up ahead
but instead of advancing
you take steps only side to side on feet
growing heavier
Is there a hidden cost to all these wasted days?
and is it really true that life is substance abuse and the substance is youth
traders trading
stimulated thought sensation
simulated and bought, curation
of our lived experiences at a price
Sometimes I get excited
and I’m too old to want to deny it
so while our friends can hit the lights and quit
this is all I can propose
If I depend on you for survival, then of what use is denial?
So while our friends can hit the lights and quit
this is all I can propose
and it’s all I can propose
Because when you see the next thing coming
it’s almost too late to start running
and I have heard it before said
that I have seen the future and it works
Sometimes I get excited
and I’m too old to want to disguise it
so while our friends can hit the lights and quit
this is all I can propose
about the questions
that keep some people up at night until
it’s not even nighttime
You seemed to spot the dropoff up ahead
but instead of advancing
you take steps only side to side on feet
growing heavier
Is there a hidden cost to all these wasted days?
and is it really true that life is substance abuse and the substance is youth
traders trading
stimulated thought sensation
simulated and bought, curation
of our lived experiences at a price
Sometimes I get excited
and I’m too old to want to deny it
so while our friends can hit the lights and quit
this is all I can propose
If I depend on you for survival, then of what use is denial?
So while our friends can hit the lights and quit
this is all I can propose
and it’s all I can propose
Because when you see the next thing coming
it’s almost too late to start running
and I have heard it before said
that I have seen the future and it works
Sometimes I get excited
and I’m too old to want to disguise it
so while our friends can hit the lights and quit
this is all I can propose

That's Cool...In a Totally Negative and Destructive Way
by Kill Lincolnsupported by 6 fans who also own “All I Can”
this is easily the best ska punk record of the 2010's so far. Which I know isn't saying alot since ska is mostly dead but regardless this album is fantastic. It combines pop punk energy with a horn section.

Jagged post-punk from Sydney captures the sound of the ’70s in its acute angled guitars and detacted vocals.

Gutsy rock & roll from this Brooklyn group bursting with hot-rodding riffs and snarling vocals, hearkening back to classic dark punk.

Taking cues from Midwestern emo and early ’10 pop punk, this Leeds, UK outfit are full of heart— not to mention hooks.

Iron Chic's narrative, some of the most aware & conscientious lyrics you will find in punk. The music is just as damn good... "There's no answers, so take a guess & make up the rest" "I couldn't stand to watch you die, so I died first, that's how I survived" 🌸💀🌸💀🌸
