When I was young my love
Was like a loaded gun
It shook me to my core
And left me on the floor
I gave up the knife
I’m so sick of time
It’s infuriating
But at least I tried.
Every morning
Everybody
Shakes a little
Everybody
Tries to make it lighter
Every morning
Everybody
Shakes a little
Everybody
Tries to make it right
A long winded sigh
A precedent to why
It could be for the taking
But is it yours or mine?
Everybody knows
This thing that I know
That the war is over
That the good guys lost
Every morning
Everybody
Shakes a little
Everybody
Tries to make it lighter
Every morning
Everybody
Shakes a little
Everybody
Tries to make it right
It's us and them
I am tired
They are liars
Take what you can take.
