"What We Worked For"

Lost the confidence to write a song,
So I found three simple chords
And held them together with my weak voice
On an out of tune guitar
My father gave to me.

May Elvis turn in his grave
And Les Paul kiss my dirty, calloused fingers
And may the likes of this song never make
One fucking dollar,
leave it for a demo tape
To be played until it's broken,
Then remembered only for what it was.

That we gave them hell
That we gave them hell
That we gave them hell

That we gave them hell
That we gave them hell
That we gave them hell

To my friends and enemies who could of been anything,
Titans and heroes who found sruvival in cause and effect.
Behind counters,
Behind windows,
Striving just
To be people
With bitter ideals of justice.
Do we only need to keep working because it pays rent?
Sleeping under plastic stars glued to ceiling,
Muscles burning alcohol and nicotine
Every morning.

But we gave them hell
But we gave them hell
But we gave them hell

But we gave them hell
But we gave them hell
But we gave them hell

There's a height beyond skyscrapers,
There's a distance beyond the freeway,
More than pictures in a magazine,
More than tragedy in a rock and roll song.
It's more than actions you know are safe to make.
It's more than money could ever buy.

Are we working to live and die in American cities?
Living to work and die in American cities,
And dying for what we worked.

  • Joy
    "All's quiet, except for this song.
    So maybe while I'm not together I can feel like I'm not alone.
    And somewhere off in the distance, rapidly advancing, is an onslaught of sorts.
    Young sirens wail with a skewed sense of glory...."

    I am oh so entertained,
    standing here like a comedian,
    I repeat what I said, again and again and again..."

    "an inventory has been taken of every belonging
    and there's so many values sought in event of emergencies

  • Reinventing Axl Rose
    "We want a band that plays loud and hard every night
    That doesn't care how many people are counted at the door
    That would travel one million miles
    and ask for nothing more than a plate of food and a place to rest..."
  • Sink, Florida, Sink
    "Not one more word tonight, between here and there,
    we'll put a distance the size of the ocean
    so now this heart can beat a skipping rhythm.
    As the cadence carries me i almost drift away..."
