When I get to the bottom of it I sink
Seems like nothing I say
Ever meant anything
But a headline over my head
Thought I made a stand
Only made a scene
There's no feast for the underfed
All the unknown dying or dead
Keep showing up in my dreams
They stand at the end of my bed
Have I ever really held anybody but myself?
To believe in the power of songs
To believe in the power of girls
Though the point that we're making is gone
Play it stripped down to my thong

I'll shut up and carry on
The scream becomes a yawn
x6

Our parents' daughters and sons
Believed in the power of songs
What if those days are gone?
My memory is strong
Anyone not dying is dead
And baby, it won't be long
So shut up and carry on

The scream becomes a yawn
I'll shut up and carry on
x4
The scream becomes a yawn
Baby, wherever you are
Baby, whatever you do
Faster than you think
Time staggers on
