lyrics

There's water in the streets
It's coming up the stairs
It's staining our sheets
And we're leaving in pairs

Don't give up
Just give up

We've lost our seat to an uneven share
We've become obsolete do we even care
We've lost our seat to an uneven share
We've become obsolete how much should we care
There was a time when we used to build things
Now we put our hands in our neighbors' pockets
We used to be the brightest beacon
But now we can't see for the light in our sockets

They're adding up the fees and using our air
We've lost the receipts and forgot our prayer
We're looking for our feet; we're looking for a spare
But more important what should we wear
We can't even breathe; we wouldn't even dare
To ask for help; the future just swears
We're choking on our teeth; our tongues are not there
But it's OK; check out my hair

There's water in the streets
It's coming up the stairs
There's water in the streets
It's coming up the stairs

Don't give up
Just give up
