On the verge of burning the ballot box by Apollo Sweetheart Lyrics
[Verse 1: chrismith]
Between the voting papers and the status quo
I leave my grievences, the staff of 3 they side eye me
Graffiti the booths like walls of my home city
Disbelief, as I relieve myself on the whole scene
False facts, light gas, I've been lied to many times
To justify my faith inside this hole
[Chorus: jethro revalde & chrismith]
Stop shrugging it off like we're just chemicals
Like we don't have a reason for burning up the ballot box
As if the bills were enough to be worth dying for
Like we don't have a reason for burning up the chemicals
[Verse 2: jethro revalde]
Did you think we just woke up one day
Decided to be reckless?
Avocado on a piece of toast could make us look so selfish
As the loans keep piling up you don't know why we feel so helpless
So I'm turning off my TV screen 'cause I can't trust them to be honest
[Chorus: jethro revalde & chrismith]
Stop shrugging it off like were just chemicals
Like we don't have a reason for burning up the ballot box
As if the bills were enough to be worth dying for
Like we don't have a reason for burning up the chemicals
[Bridge: chrismith & jethro revalde]
Seal my lips and black my eyes
If I'm a pussy then just count this as my ninth life
And if you think I'll give in before I die
Then you can kiss your ballot box goodbye
Sign it off with X and O's
I'm burning up the chemicals
No empathy for when you cry
Grab my match and light the fire
Like we don't have a reason for
Burning up the ballot box
(Like we don't have a reason for)
Between the voting papers and the status quo
I leave my grievences, the staff of 3 they side eye me
Graffiti the booths like walls of my home city
Disbelief, as I relieve myself on the whole scene
False facts, light gas, I've been lied to many times
To justify my faith inside this hole
[Chorus: jethro revalde & chrismith]
Stop shrugging it off like we're just chemicals
Like we don't have a reason for burning up the ballot box
As if the bills were enough to be worth dying for
Like we don't have a reason for burning up the chemicals
[Verse 2: jethro revalde]
Did you think we just woke up one day
Decided to be reckless?
Avocado on a piece of toast could make us look so selfish
As the loans keep piling up you don't know why we feel so helpless
So I'm turning off my TV screen 'cause I can't trust them to be honest
[Chorus: jethro revalde & chrismith]
Stop shrugging it off like were just chemicals
Like we don't have a reason for burning up the ballot box
As if the bills were enough to be worth dying for
Like we don't have a reason for burning up the chemicals
[Bridge: chrismith & jethro revalde]
Seal my lips and black my eyes
If I'm a pussy then just count this as my ninth life
And if you think I'll give in before I die
Then you can kiss your ballot box goodbye
Sign it off with X and O's
I'm burning up the chemicals
No empathy for when you cry
Grab my match and light the fire
Like we don't have a reason for
Burning up the ballot box
(Like we don't have a reason for)
