Weakerthans, The lyrics

Held like water in your shaking hands Are all the small defeats a day demands 10-6 or 9-5 trying, dying to survive Never knowing what survival means Leave the apartment to buy alcohol Hang our diplomas on the bathroom wall Pick at the plaster chipped away Survey some stunning tooth decay Enlist the cat in the impending class-war Let's lay our bad day down here dear Let's make-believe we're strong Or hum some protest song Like maybe "We Shall Overcome Someday" Overcome the stupid things we say Say I needed more than this Say I needed one more kiss We left that light on way too long now Let's plant a bomb at city-hall and kill an MLA Talk the night away You call in sick I'll quit the word-games that I play I swear I way more than half believe it When I say that somewhere love and justice shine Cynicism falls asleep Tyranny talks to itself Sappy slogans all come true We forget to feed our fear Get This Ringtone
