|
And I do it again and again |
|
I listen for visions and missions in the wind |
|
I won the vote but shunned the soft parade |
|
And now I'm picking garbage, a true sage's trade |
|
I won every battle and lost the war |
|
You dared me to reach for it, you dared me to know |
|
So I drove that car just as slow as it would go |
|
Listening for the sound of my last hope hit the ground, baby |
|
Won every battle but lost the war |
|
You managed to take more than I had |
|
With your greedy treaties and your rubber badge |
|
You may have won every battle but you lost the war |
|
Well, I only did what I knew |
|
Simple math, nothing more nothing less |
|
If you hadn't of told me I never would have guessed |
|
How hungry was your hate, how sealed was my fate |
|
And I won every battle but lost the war |
|
I managed to take more than I had |
|
With your greedy treaties and your rubber badge |
|
You may have won every battle but you lost the war |
|
You may have won every battle but lost the war |
