lyrics

It’s been a long and winding road
Trying hard not to falter when well doesn’t bode
As long as we don’t lose sight
I know it’s going to be alright
I think now would be a good time
to put everything we worked for down on the line
Not giving up or giving in
To everything we might have been

These days are going down fading like sun
On the distant horizon that sets for no one
You’ve only to gain if you’ve nothing to lose
And sometimes even punkers get the blues

It’s easy to sink and look like a fool
Diving into the shallow end of the industry pool
If that’s how you want it to be
Then you know that it’s okay by me
I’ll never sell out or buy in
Just another race that I’ll probably never win
Keep on just keepin on with hope
Or whatever helps you to cope

And after twenty two years I really hoped it would feel
Like I was sharing something more that just a cliched ideal
And all the passionless hacks would put their pack on their backs
And go home fucking go home go fucking home

These days are going down fading like sun
On the distant horizon that sets for no one
You’ve only to gain if you’ve nothing to lose
And sometimes even punkers get the blues
