Lyrics

It seems i should try to do without it

Feeling like I should attempt to manage without it

But every step in the right direction

Each positive move I make takes me farther away

Takes me further away

Progressing in the right direction leads to distancing

How can i do it right

How can I accomplish things correctly?

When everyone says something different

Conflicting advice from everyone makes it challenging

We keep going

We continue moving forward

But we should stop

However, it might be time to halt our actions

We're biting the hand that feeds us

We're harming the source of our sustenance

Eyes are closed

People seem unaware or indifferent

But some pairs are still awake

Despite most being unaware, some remain attentive

There's no room to discuss

No opportunity for dialogue or exchange of ideas

Is there hope that we will ever wake up

Is there a chance we'll awaken from this situation?

I wouldn't bet on luck

I wouldn't rely on chance or fortune

We wish you had noticed that we stuck

We hope you had recognized our predicament

In the middle of the muck

Stuck in a difficult situation

We all drown in the water

We're all succumbing to the troubles

And burning in town

Suffering or facing challenges within the community

We play it down

Repeated assertion of downplaying collective struggles and difficulties despite being overwhelmed by them

We all drown in the water

-

And burning in town

-

We play it down

-

We all drown in the water

-

And burning in town

-

We play it down

-

We all drown in the water

-

And burning in town

-

We play it down
