Prevent the World Lyrics
I'm stuck in a basement world
Where even if I try
To make rock my living
It wouldn't coincide
So how do I reconcile six years of life with irrational urges?
Would I still stay home?
You're preventing the world
From hearing my songs
Imagine if the world could get behind it
The combined strength would propell us all
And release us from our stilted social norms
I'm believing what I'm feeling
Yeah, it's finally coming true
Right now took forever
The rest is up to you
So don't let go
They force you to make a choice, but you don't have to choose
Social norms engrave the way
But you can't bend the rules
Realize the choice you make, not because it's true
There's a better way, we all, we all want you to know
You're preventing the world
From hearing my songs
Imagine if the world could get behind it
The combined strength would propell us all
And release us form our stilted social norms
Where even if I try
To make rock my living
It wouldn't coincide
So how do I reconcile six years of life with irrational urges?
Would I still stay home?
From hearing my songs
Imagine if the world could get behind it
The combined strength would propell us all
And release us from our stilted social norms
Yeah, it's finally coming true
Right now took forever
The rest is up to you
So don't let go
Social norms engrave the way
But you can't bend the rules
Realize the choice you make, not because it's true
There's a better way, we all, we all want you to know
From hearing my songs
Imagine if the world could get behind it
The combined strength would propell us all
And release us form our stilted social norms

love the song, kinda have a slight hint of what it means
I'm stuck in a basement world Where even if I try To make rock my living...
is this because he left Cursive to go to school or something? there are a couple songs, i think, that mention him trying to make music in the basement ans stuff
but I suck at interpreting
yeah im unsure but i think that hes just like woah i did so good with cursive but now criteria will it be as good or better
and feeling kinda crutched that its not getting all the attention the music should be getting so i dont think per-say a person is preventing him its more just there not heard
