lyrics

I'm tired of fighting the nonsensical fight
Every evening night after night
And over in the valley
They don't know what's going on
The men are all alcoholic
The women are just holding on
Just holding on

I'm tired of pacing night after night
Homeschooled by day drinkers the kids' looking for a fight
You gotta fix the fences
So the horses don't run off
And you should see a doctor
Or take something for that cough
Something here is off

Take all these lessons as something you should learn
Cause that's the urban landscape sometimes the city has to burn
You never called your father perhaps now you should
You don't miss your water you're not doing any good

It's driving me mad get it out of my sight
There's a ton of heat but zero light
I'll take your bishop
Since you took my pawn
Didn't think you'd ever notice
I'm just holding on
Just holding on
