[00:00.285] |
Held like water in your shaking hands |
[00:04.406] |
Are all the small defeats a day demands |
[00:08.701] |
10 to 6 or 9 to 5 |
[00:10.717] |
Trying, dying to survive |
[00:12.757] |
Never knowing what survival means |
[00:16.641] |
Leave the apartment to buy alcohol |
[00:20.752] |
Hung our diplomas on the bathroom wall |
[00:24.760] |
Pick at the plaster chipped away |
[00:26.913] |
Survey some stunning tooth decay |
[00:29.040] |
Enlist the cat in the impending class-war |
[00:35.516] |
Let's lay our bad day down here dear, Let's |
[00:44.172] |
Make-believe we're strong |
[00:51.284] |
Or hum some protest song |
[00:53.948] |
Like maybe "We Shall Overcome Someday" |
[00:58.373] |
Overcome the stupid things we say |
[01:02.341] |
Say I needed more than this |
[01:04.335] |
Say I needed one more kiss |
[01:06.724] |
We left that light on way too long now |
[01:12.762] |
Let's plant a bomb at city-hall and |
[01:21.383] |
Kill an MLA |
[01:28.496] |
We'll talk the night away |
[01:31.160] |
You call in sick, I'll quit the word-games that I play |
[01:35.017] |
swear I way more than half believe it when I say |
[01:39.255] |
That somewhere love and justice shine |
[01:43.655] |
Cynicism falls asleep |
[01:47.751] |
Tyranny talks to itself |
[01:51.840] |
Sappy slogans all come true |
[01:55.903] |
We forget to feed our fear |
