LYRIC: How Do You Ignore? (August 2025)
How do you ignore a genocide?
(Practice, man, practice)
This isn’t the first
And it won’t be the last
Our lives bathed in blood
That we try not to think about
How do you ignore the climate crisis?
(Practice, man, practice)
We’ve been in trouble
Since before I was born
The future a precipice
We try not to think about
Just try not to think about it
We try not to think about
How do you ignore this creeping fascism?
(Practice, man, practice)
Swastikas carved
Into primary school desks
Just everyday terrors
We try not to think about
How do you ignore how fucked up everything is?
(Practice, man, practice)
The problems never change
It’s a feature not a bug
Of the unjust structures
That we try not to think about
Just try not to think about it
We try not to think about
What if we thought about it?
What if we stopped ignoring?
Did more than just post about it?
Did more than just empty warnings?
Well how would we sleep at night?
Where would all the fun be then?
We can’t stop ignoring!
So just try not to think about it
How do you ignore a genocide?
How do you ignore the climate crisis?
How do you ignore this creeping fascism?
How do you ignore how fucked up everything is?
We just try not to think about it
