Lyrics A Year in Decline - Quiet Company

A Year in Decline

I guess I should be a little stronger than I am
A little stronger like I promised I’d be
Now I know what doesn’t kill you makes you weak
And I wish I could be a little smarter than I am
A little quicker than I was the last time
Now it seems the ground is frozen to my feet
I could make this work, I can make this happen
If I wanted to, if I wanted to
I can make this work, I can make it happen
If I wanted to, if I wanted to
I can’t sleep, if you’re not laying next to me
Sing a sweeter song
Sing a song of love and faith, sing a song of courage and devotion
Sing it 'til we all remember how it feels
Celebration songs are filling up our houses
I will love the earth again, I will know my name again
I will find my place again
And I could make this work, I can make this happen
If I wanted to, if I wanted to
I could wake this up, my little sleeping dragon
If I wanted to, if I wanted to
But I can’t sleep, if you’re not laying next to me
It’s incomplete, there’s plenty quiet, never peace
So sing it out!
Like angels perched on steady shoulders
And cast them down!
Those devils of our lesser natures
