Red State Blues, Pt 1: The Problem

Lyrics

I think that I got too good at writing 'Fuck You's' I think I need a bigger challenge now And honestly, it's a little past due Getting to the root of the problem to finally work this out I decided to make a list of the things that make me angry Like the looks I get when people find out that I'm an atheist I thought that'd change when I moved from Mississippi And I hate that there are only 2 people here that really get me I mean one I'm dating so it's kind of a job requirement But Jon lives too far away to see Well not really, it's just that the state took my license away from me So fuck the police … Even though I was completely in the wrong So I wake up and ask myself is this where I want to be Even though I've got a steady job, a couple friends, and family That doesn't change that I don't belong Me and these right wing politics don't get along If I'm not happy here I should do what's best for me And leave And I hate that I walk a block and end up in fucking Kansas Home to a church that makes me more than just uncomfortable Or the blatant hate from their so called representatives Everything is exactly what it looks like And everyone is exactly who they seem to be Call me a quitter but it's just not working I need some true blue scenery So I wake up and ask myself is this where I want to be Even though I've got a steady job, a couple friends, and family That doesn't change that I don't belong Me and these right wing politics don't get along If I'm not happy here I should do what's best for me And leave If you want to go then go if you think that's right for you If you want to go then go, just know where you'll end up and what you'll do If you want to go then go if you think that's right for you Well I want to go so I'll go But where to?
