lyrics

if it didn't sound so pretentious
i'd say leave it to the historians
they'll put things in perspective
with cold scientific detachment
they'll take into consideration
what we wanted, what we believed
what we did and didn't know
what was beyond our control
there was no revolution
and we didn't change the world
did the force of our convictions
match the scope of our ambitions

but i don't want to dwell on the past anymore
i'm more ambitious than ever before
and i'm starting to understand
how it all works
i'm starting to understand what it's all worth

boredom is counter-revolutionary
boredom is counter-revolutionary
boredom is counter-revolutionary
boredom is counter-revolutionary
