about

Cool story.

Kojette and Thom were little punk kids back in the mid-90s when they first dated (long story). While they have each grown in musical influences over the years, the energy, sweat, and passion of punk rock is still very near and dear to them.

This is an alternate version of our synthpop protest song "Lack of Access". We felt a fast, raw punk version would do the lyrical content justice and add a little bit of oomf just for kicks.

lyrics

It’s bent up
It’s so twisted
You’re playing us like we missed it
We don’t have the power for changing
So you just keep rearranging

Now it works for only you (ooh ooh)
Everyone is so damn through (ooh ooh)
We can’t fix it so why even try
Everything has gone so far awry

You take licks on our morality
You make us question our reality
Believe in what I don’t anymore
A generation never heard is no more
We’re making history
Be a part of this story

(“This is the way the world ends”)

You question us but we keep changing
All you’re doing to us is estranging
Stuck in history is where you’ll be (ee ee)
While we make our final plea (ee ee)

I can’t do anything for you (ooh ooh)
This is something you must do (ooh ooh)
Save us or save yourself
It’s something that hides inside as well

You make life full of banality
Tell lies to cover up your vanity
Believe in what you don’t anymore
A generation you have learned to ignore
We’re taking history
Be a part of the story

(“This is the way the world ends;
not with bang but a whimper”)

You take licks on our morality
You make us question our reality
Believe in what I don’t anymore
A generation never heard is no more

We are making history
Be a part of this story
