lyrics

Well, we know that we have lost, when we
Can’t remember when we’d won
When all of our screensavers
Depict the same old setting sun

Well, we know that we have lost, when we
Can’t laugh about ourselves
When kindness seems so much harder
Than cruelty casually dealt

Well. we know that we have lost,
When we’ve got no time to spare
Run amok in shiny sneakers
Dudes on TV make us wear

Well, we know that we have lost
When all that we could gain
From these years of dull existence
Is this numbness from the pain –
(from the pain)

*

Well, we know that we have lost, when we
Can’t remember when we’d won
When all of our screen saviours
Just turn their backs and run.
