Dignity And Money

(album: Straylight Run - 2004)

Damage control,
There so thoroughly modern,
We'll tell you how it goes,
It's not a serious problem,
So...

You can get convinced,
That we can get convinced,
But either way the truth is bound to get twisted,
You can't take a break when the pain of the world is weighing on your next decision,

So I focused on what,
I've been promised,
Then they tore us open,
They bled us dry of our dignity and money,

It's all under control,
So keep holding it together,
Well things just fall apart!
But you know,
We can't wait forever,
So...

Come on try and keep this,
Keep this you can grit your teeth,
And do your job they'll never know the difference,
Keep it going one day,
Month, a year or more,
Ignore that sinking feeling,

So I focused on what,
I've been promised,
Then they tore us open,
They bled us dry of our dignity and...

So I focused on what,
I've been promised,
Then they tore us open,
They bled us dry of our dignity and money,

We've should have seen it coming,
We've should have seen it coming,
We've should have seen it coming,
We left ourselves wide open,

So I focused on what,
I've been promised,
Then they tore us open,
They bled us dry of our dignity and...

Maybe we could all retain a bit of ourselves,
Remember who we were and keep on moving,
Put things in perspective,
Try and learn a lesson,
It's not life or death,
It's only business!
And I'm not low!
And I'm not low!
And I'm not low!
And I'm not low!
