Standing ever so still

In times of desperation and war

Let's remain united

Hoping for a cure

When money's tight

And jobs are sparse

We're finally feeling

What others have always known

The need to be remembered

Searching for a light

That remains oh so obscured

In a devil's endure

We must remain united

Or be requited

In these times of desperation and war

Drinking cheap shots at some ol' bar

We're finally meeting our match

And it doesn't feel right

Our world's collapsing

For the first time

We're truly scared

If we can even manage to care

But remember I'll always be here

Hoping that I can be a hero

And knowing that I realized it first

Or at least acknowledged it

Times aren't gonna get better

We've sunken too far down

And it's the only direction we know

So remember

As the sky turns to gray

Smoke swirling in the early light

Sicily green water

Colliding into you

As we cough and splutter

Remember you were warned

This can't go on
