lyrics

sorrowfully he turns
with unqualified concern
they’re knocking me off my feet
they’re leading me down the street
by a cluster of houses
we toughen up for the rain
pretending to understand
we’re anything but the same

grouse high kids
won’t stay down
one black eye
trained on town

tunnels are filled with tears
as another one disappears
tuning the radio
to a blood-filled undertow
why is nobody speaking
my word of mouth prepared
what the world needs now
is emergency declared
