Envelope - Day Dream Nation [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Man, this break is so fucking hard…

I’m from the heart-shaped state of Screamin’ Jay
We got the O when we abbreviate
Though you can rock the I-O til graffiti fame
But I ain’t sure what I see these days
I’m under the influence of finer balance
Find a dope man, get you high for hours
There’s one on the corner, one behind the counter
Neither one gives a fuck if you die without love
No fast buck, miracle cure
Just a dying middle class in a spiritual war
Hey man, I think they like it
Became a man from a teenage riot
Conditioned, my brain makes me quiet
Too apathetic to make me violent
I feel like I might run out of ideas
Thank god I’m not the mouth of my peers

I’m living in a day dream nation
Where the nights are a blur and the days seem wasted
Put a shot on the bar and make me take it
Keep me living in a day dream nation
I’m living in a day dream nation
Where the nights are a blur and the days seem wasted
Put a shot on the bar and make me take it
Keep me living in a day dream nation

My peers are some selfish little pricks
I hate the hell in which they sit
Man, why are you so fucking dramatic all the time
I’m an 80s baby, I fell from the crib
And you prize the flag
Seen it, no sky
Love my country, no reason why
Guess it’s all that I have seen in life, and
No bitch, eagles don’t cry
They get shot like the liquor in the little glass
Start to disappear like the middle class
Cause we’re unaware of the debt we’re making
Now they hold the poor down with the credit rating
And I’m just an Ohio boy
I’ll even admit that I’m annoyed
When I hear too much of my own voice
Can’t shut the fuck up, man, I have no choice

I’m living in a day dream nation
Where the nights are a blur and the days seem wasted
Put a shot on the bar and make me take it
Keep me living in a day dream nation
I’m living in a day dream nation
Where the nights are a blur and the days seem wasted
Put a shot on the bar and make me take it
Keep me living in a day dream nation
