lyrics

Stuck in the ways of our fathers
Busting our asses, trying to make a dollar
Now I gotta steal from my brothers
Just to get by; just to get by

Back in the days, everything was better
People sure were kinder
The dollar was stronger
Now I gottta take medications
Just to get by; just to get by;
just to get by

You know my love for you’s so strong
But everything I do turns out wrong

(ooooooooooooooooooooooooo)

This is goodbye; I don’t know why
I don’t know why
You know my love for you’s so strong
But everything I do
Everything I say
Every single thing
Turns out wrong

**********
**********

Oh no
Is this the end?
All is the fall

Hell no
We’ll keep fighting
On and on
All is all
All is the wall
All is the crawl

Tell me the truth
Is this the end?
