Until
Paces Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Breathing through a thin blue cloth
Pissed about that guy who's not
If we cant pull through this
We might need guns

Staring at our LCDs
Hoping that the news we see
Can help us get through this
Or keep us all dumb

Running to the liquor store
Grabbing more than we can hoard
If we cant pull through this
We might need drugs

What if we stay contagious
Locked in our little cages
Or run to high elevations
Until further notice

Breathing through a thin blue cloth
Pissed about that guy who's not
If we cant pull through this
We might need guns

Kids are bouncing off the walls
Madness is the friend we call
When we can't get through this
We might need drugs

What if we stay contagious
Locked in our little cages
Or run to high elevations
Until further notice

What if we stay contagious
Locked in our little cages




Or run to high elevations
Until further notice
