If and When We Rise Again |
Don’t you come to me with all your color-coded quotes |
Everybody’s laughing but they never ever get my jokes |
Fool, you’re a tool, a sheep |
And it’s obvious to everyone but company you keep |
And don’t you squint at me because your childhood was the pits |
Every single one of us have trodden through our shit |
Oh, and I know you’re shrewd |
Because I smell it in your clothes |
It’s in everything you do |
Falling, fallen, we all fall down |
It only really matters how we stand our ground |
And if and when we rise to our feet again |
We’ll be on our own |
Everything we built (It's gone) |
And every one around (Is stunned) |
We just sit here staring blankly |
And everything goes numb |
Lord, if I felt a thing |
I could wrap my mind around this |
And prevent us getting stinged |
And please excuse my enemies |
I think they do not know |
I will gladly self destruct if they leave me alone |
Friend, that’s the end of us |
Because you’re way behind in empathy and overdue on trust |
Calmly, calmly and patiently |
We’ve seen all the evidence |
But still cannot believe |
And if and when we rise to our feet again |
We’ll be on our own |
Somehow, someway, we perservere |
The questions on our lips fall on deafened ears |
And if and when we rise to our feet again |
We’ll be on our own |
