Life and Debt - '68

I’m not one to let it go

But I’m under the gun

I am valleys and peaks

We are queens and kings

I see a flickering light

I watch the pendulum swing

My world has been sold

I love you all

Is this the saddest song?

Is this the setting sun or a changing of the guard?

Should I give up my hands?

Should I give up myself?

'Tis a labor of love

We are balanced on a disaster

The distance is growing strong and all along

We sang our song

Never understanding this

I can’t help with you and you can’t help with me

I might belong to the afterglow

So where does all of it go?

Is it all offscreen?

Just add another fold

Just add another ring

Another day goes by

Another 100 years, but I can’t not try

We are balanced on a disaster

The distance is growing strong and all along

We sang our song

Never understanding this

I can’t help with you and you can’t help with me

I might belong to the afterglow

I worship to be safe

Is this the end of the scene?

I found not, the gold

As I hear your words, I find my own

I never lost faith, but I maybe lost hope

I worship to be safe

The future is clearly unclear

It goes from me to you, but not to me from you

I push my heart aside

You’re so hard to hold

I disappointed myself and it’s too late to go back

I can’t die anonymously

I want a title wave as we balance on a disaster

The distance is growing strong and all along

We sang our song

Never understanding this

I can’t help with you and you can’t help with me

I might belong to the afterglow

I’ll see you again

Maybe next year we’ll be better off

And I can shake my hands

Clear as I can

I try to tell you all

But you can’t understand and you might never will

So I’ll just live in this song
