Lyrics
Lasted longer, well that's enough
Lasting longer is sufficient or satisfactory.
Promises honored, acting tough
Commitments are kept, and there's a facade of strength.
Lasted longer, well that's enough
Reiteration of lasting longer being enough.
It's easy to feel strong about something
Feeling strong about something not known by others.
Of which no-one else knows a single thing
Strength in a matter that is obscure to everyone else.
Who would remember a down turned mouth?
Questioning the remembrance of a sad expression.
We start with next to nothing, why?
Beginning with very little, questioning why.
Just like we all had lost them, why?
Similarity in losing possessions, questioning why.
When I die I'm leaving nothing, why?
Contemplating leaving nothing behind at death, questioning why.
We start with next to nothing, why?
Starting with minimal possessions, questioning why.
I won't put myself out on show
Choosing not to expose oneself to scrutiny.
And I won't dance round no maypole
Refusing to participate in celebratory activities.
No more chance than a cat in hell
Having little chance, akin to a cat in hell.
We start with next to nothing, why?
Reiteration of starting with very little, questioning why.
Just like we all had lost them, why?
Similarity in losing possessions, questioning why.
When I die I'm leaving nothing, why?
Contemplating leaving nothing behind at death, questioning why.
We start with next to nothing, why?
Emphasizing the beginning with minimal possessions, questioning why.
