Single Mothers – Big Scar lyrics

They went from that’s so raven straight into pavement
They started with the best-ofs and got some personal favorites
Hugged up to that crass crew
Then slid into the replacements
The suburbs aren’t the same game
I remember when we cased them

Staring into that dark abyss
Seeing hope but avoiding it
Maybe you heard me or maybe you didn’t
But either way this is diminished
And either way this is gonna be finished

Now we’re getting OCD
With them drama queens
They want to talk about
You and me and me and me
Swollen out in the summery
Ya, it’s not all that funny
But there’s hope in the joke
When all you do is dream

Staring into that dark abyss
Seeing hope but avoiding it
Maybe you heard me or maybe you didn’t
But either way this is diminished
Either way it's gonna finish

Now were turning old wounds into pretty scars
While all the kids around here are kick flipping to big star
Now the all the kids around here they want to borrow my car
It ain’t easy being me but it ain’t easy being young anymore
If you can back up the trailer you can be in the band
It’s a skill set that every drummer should have
Only leaning slightly on your back up plan
With your Black Flag shirt under your day job drab

Hanging onto that dark abyss
Needing hope but avoiding it
Needing hope but destroying it
