Enough To Get By - Claymore

Oxygen to breathe and air to leave my lungs in spattered breaths

They close and open like the press

For the big news story on the back page its my page its my life

Ill write it as i please now shut out the lights

Fireworks falling to pavement

The concrete that creates our lives

The living walls that save us

Protect us from these incandecent lies with thousands of falling tries

Cracked on and settling

Distilling the web of feelings

Interconnect and dress like we mean its the looks that kill and i cant see you

now

We’re such products

Such dolls and cars and hair care bottles

Rotting on the side of a road

Entropy declared the king and i cant seem to think

The common goods destroying the social well of a nation singing

The common good is not indeed

A way of mixed means

We cant expect our equal rights

Some would rather fall and die

A flag that once meant everything now burns to ashes on the ground

Our fathers died and now we’re free as if

They never were around

But we’ve got enough to get by
