|
Night falls and the light fades |
|
And still you won't take off your sunglasses |
|
I know what you're thinking |
|
You think the kids don't care |
|
And you're defeated |
|
And the rain comes |
|
And the rain goes again |
|
And you see this as some symbol of your pain |
|
This hungry life won't let you out whole |
|
But you can change a thing or two |
|
Before you go |
|
This hungry life |
|
Might not leave you with much |
|
But you can change your story |
|
And throw a hand up from the mud |
|
Night falls and the rain comes |
|
And the rain goes |
|
And the moon is a stain when you've lost something |
|
And you wait and you wait |
|
And you wait |
|
For the end or the girl or the song |
|
Or the boy or the faith |
|
Or the leader who won't bring you shame |
|
And you wait and you wait |
|
And you wait |
|
This hungry life won't let you out whole |
|
But you can change a thing or two |
|
Before you go |
|
This hungry life |
|
Might not leave you with much |
|
But you can change your story |
|
And throw a hand up from the mud |
|
This hungry life won't let you out whole |
|
But you can change a thing or two |
|
Before you go |
|
This hungry life |
|
Might not leave you with much |
|
Kick up some dust |
|
Earn someone's trust |
|
Leave a few words behind you |
|
If you must |
|
Pick a good fight |
|
And keep someone up all night |
|
Change the story, change the story |
|
And throw a hand up from the mud |
