(Billy Bob Thornton/JD Andrew)
We're goin' nowhere fast
Look at all the things we passed
Like common sense and self defense
Things we thought would last
We're goin' in the drink
It's now a massive sink
Power and grudge became the judge
And stole the right to think
But the sun keeps shining
There's a silver lining
And it's not surprising
Cause the moon keeps rising
The birds keep flying
And the kids keep crying
The friends keep calling
And the rain keeps falling
Your hope outweighs
The games people play
Don't count the days
Like loyalty in a whore
There's no home team anymore
Buy sell and trade the souls all fade
Only flesh walks through the door
We can't get a boost
From the cocks who rule the roost
They keep jerkin' us and they keep workin' us
That's how the dough is made
But the sun keeps shining
There's a silver lining
And it's not surprising
Cause the moon keeps rising
The birds keep flying
And the kids keep crying
The friends keep calling
And the rain keeps falling
Your hope outweighs
The games people play
Don't count the days
