You know it used to be different
Not that I actually know
We used to have one ideal and thing were pretty
straight forward
We were pragmatic and most information traveled slowly
Everyone's opinions weren't important
There was an unsorted Eisenhower mass
Mass
Political parties were
well
pretty much the same
All this nostalgia I don't have

We have no idea what we are doing
We don't seek to understand
We say we do
But understanding requires some submission
And the stakes raise with emotion
Because we might lose it
The nostalgia we don't have

'They who can give up essential liberty
to obtain a little temporary safety
deserve neither liberty nor safety'
-Benjamin Franklin
