about

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

...

To summarize the summary of the summary: people are a problem.

lyrics

Spent a weekend in bed just thinking of you
Riding our bikes up the unpaved avenue
But the dirt road's been paved over now, bounded by houses that sprout up
Like weeds in a cemetery

We were just kids, just stupid kids
We didn't know what we wanted
I’m sorry for some things I did and for some things I didn’t do
I can’t say that I never knew

Maybe this is how we die
Or maybe how we will survive
Explosions in the sky
Explosions in the sky

We always have a way with words when things seem brutal
Bet you’ve never heard of something so futile
Words of wisdom dangled, like yarn to a cat
It is no more, and no less than that

I'll tell you all my dirty little secrets
If you tell me how you feel
I don’t have much to offer you now
But I’ll tell you how I feel
And you can tell me how you feel
And I’ll tell you how I feel
