Lyrics

Left arm left numb cause blood won't come

Feeling numb in the left arm due to a lack of blood flow.

Hard pressed and tested to our tongues

Facing challenges and pressure, tested by difficult circumstances.

Fine friends then blend into the walls

Close friends blending into the background or becoming distant.

And we're sick to death of waiting on em

Experiencing impatience and frustration from waiting.


So save that dedication to your frustration

Encouraging to redirect dedication from frustration.

Cause the brilliance of a plan is in giving up

Highlighting the wisdom in abandoning a plan.

There's nothing inspirational like watching angels drop

Nothing uplifting about witnessing failures or disappointments.

The hardest part of playfighting is knowing when to stop

Recognizing the difficulty in knowing when to end a playful conflict.


We fund the function that will free

Supporting a cause or project that brings freedom.

Well hell, at least we all agree

Finding common ground or agreement in challenging situations.

So roll in that polygraph machine

Suggesting the use of a polygraph to uncover the truth.

Cause I don't know what to think and who to believe

Expressing confusion about what to believe and who to trust.


So save that dedication to your frustration

Reiterating the idea of redirecting dedication away from frustration.

Cause the brilliance of a plan is in giving up

Emphasizing the value in giving up on a plan.

There's nothing inspirational like watching angels drop

Stressing the lack of inspiration in witnessing failures.

The hardest part of playfighting is knowing when to stop

Reiterating the challenge of knowing when to end a playful conflict.


But don't stop now

Encouraging persistence despite challenges.

Cause I just want something better to remember

Desiring something positive to remember.


Never any rest for the distressed

No rest for those in distress or trouble.

The losers are alive and well

Those who lose or face challenges are still alive and coping.

In any given holding cell

Individuals facing difficulties are found in various situations.

Time for dedication to your frustration

Allocating time and effort to frustration.


'Cause the brilliance of a plan is in giving up

Reemphasizing the wisdom in abandoning plans.

There's nothing inspirational like watching angels drop

Reiterating the lack of inspiration in witnessing failures.

The hardest part of playfighting is knowing when to stop

Highlighting the challenge of knowing when to end a playful conflict.
