Lyrics For The Record - Bodega

I'm not too exactly proud of the place I'm from
But I've been here my whole life so I guess I'll call it home
In South Carolina a flag still shows the enslavement of our minds
But in South Carolina I learned from all the times

We went to all-ages shows
Sunday matinees
Hanging wondering if the bands would show and even play
But the bands would come and we'd all sing along
(All sing along)
Would they ever know their impact would last so long?

The world is full of lonely places no matter where you're from
A crowded show
Familiar faces
Make me feel at home
Many friends have come and gone
But I know what's kept me here
The message of those songs has sustained me through the years

I heard the word integrity
I know now what that means
I learned it first from Black Flag, mohawks, combat boots
And torn-up jeans

We were more than just a tour date
You were more than just a song
We sweat and sang together and that helped us to carry on
We were more than just a tour date
You were more than just a song
We sweat and sang together and that helped us to carry on
We were more than just a tour date
You were more than just a song
We sweat and sang together and that helped us to carry on
We were more
And you were more
We were more
Just for the record
