Everything's Broken

We all have high hopes As we step on the wagon With the band playing Grab the tail of the dragon Not really knowing What we are needing Where we are going When we are leaving Just when we get there, hoping Not everything's broken Tripping the light Of the fandango What's the big fuss Why can't we let go Paying the fair On what should be free Instead mostly care You about you and me about me This far into game I was hoping Everything wasn't broken Used to we'd all Come up to the line The same one we've learned To step over in time No matter which side We all take a beating With nowhere to hide In our time of grieving Either direction, coming or going Seems these days, everything's broken
