Lyrics

Damage control
They're so thoroughly modern
We'll tell you how it goes
It's not a serious problem
So...
You can get convinced
That we can get convinced
But either way the truth is bound to get twisted
You can't take a break when the fate of the world is waiting on your next decision
So I focused on what
I'd been promised
Then they tore us open
And bled us dry of our dignity and money
It's all under control
So keep holding it together
Well things just fall apart
But you know
We can't wait forever
So...
Come on try and keep this, keep this
You can grit your teeth and do your job, they'll never know the difference
Keep it going one day
Month, a year or more
Ignore that sinking feeling
So I focused on what
I'd been promised
Then they tore us open
And bled us dry of our dignity and
So I focused on what
I'd been promised
Then they tore us open
And bled us dry of our dignity and money
We should've seen it coming (should've seen it)
We should've seen it coming (should've seen it)
We should've seen it coming (should've seen it)
We left ourselves wide open
So I focused on what
I'd been promised
Then they tore us open
And bled us dry of our dignity and
Maybe we could all retain a bit of ourselves
Remember who we were and keep on moving
Put things in perspective
Try and learn a lesson
It's not life or death
It's only business
No no no
No no no
No no no
