lyrics

Feeble, broken and so sore
from leaning onto my own sword
and these words have brought me here before
and now we're ready to lock horns

If we both acted so perfect
could we honestly tell ourselves that we deserved it?
Cuz that makes me nervous
I said it, you heard it
Is trying to be better an endeavour that's worthless?

The sticks and stones we throw start to feel heavy
and soon we'll both regret breaking the levy

The meter teeters, the pressure's amounting
We toss straws on our backs, but who's really counting?
No winners, just losers, we both take a pounding
Floodgate is open, and now we're both drowning

Warfare we know serves no purpose
but this red smokescreen we see is going to convert us
and expose resentments that lurk 'neath the surface
Now I'm certain to be better is an endeavour that is worthless

Dead End Drive-In Vancouver, British Columbia

Punk band from Vancouver, BC. You know. That one with the 3 guitar players. Gotta shred with existential dread.
