I've got the 21st century survival blues

A condition brought on by watching the news

Things have been quiet for far too long

And if I know human beings, things are gonna go wrong

We were raised in a glade of unsustainable peace

Not many of us ever have to live on our knees

I'm scared that I won't have the strength that it takes

To stand up when the levee breaks

So meet me at home when the sirens go off

I don't wanna be alone so don't you get lost

I know a place where the two of us can hide

We can barricade the door and we'd be safe inside

When the harsh winds blow and the world gets cold

You can't trust kindness and you can't eat gold

I've got the 21st century survival blues

But to tell you the truth I just need you

I've got the 21st century survival blues

A generation raised up without paying its dues

Comfortable enough to play around with doubt

Without knowing how to survive when the lights go out

And if we take away the things that they've been depending on

We'll be flailing like children in a nursery home

So I started making lists of the essential things

For when the storms bring what they bring

So meet me at home when the sirens go off

I don't wanna be alone so don't you get lost

And I know a place where the two of us can hide

We can barricade the door and we'd be safe inside

When the harsh winds blow and the world gets cold

You can't trust kindness and you can't eat gold

I've got the 21st century survival blues

But to tell you the truth I just need you-you

I just need you-you

I've got the 21st century survival blues

I've got shelter, drinking water I've got cupboards of food

And I know I can survive in my apocalypse home

But what's the point of surviving if you're just surviving alone

So meet me at home when the sirens go off

I don't wanna be alone so don't you get lost

And I know a place where the two of us can hide

We can barricade the door and we'd be safe inside

When the harsh winds blow and the world gets cold

No you can't trust kindness and you can't eat gold

I've got the 21st century survival blues

But to tell you the truth, let me tell you the truth

I just need you-you

I just need you-you
