Take Me to the Riot Lyrics

Grey skies and light fading
Headlamps making patterns on the wall
Uptown it?s dead now but
Out here no one seems to care at all

Slick girls and sick boys and
Each one lining up to take him home
They hold tight, their coin and
They pray no one...

    The song is likely about the depressing condition of boredom in youth culture and how we need extremity to feel anything at all. Being on medication, being "ill", and "fixing" our sickness with money. Being taken to a something like a riot is akin to being invigorated and rebelling against the status quo of society. We don't need therapy or pills we just need hope, energy and people who believe that they can improve the world by shaking things up a bit.
