lyrics

Gone is your dignity
And gone is your pride
You can freely start over
And look for a match
It doesn’t leave much
to our collective soul
but an awkward smell
And a terrible sense a fashion
Losing is the first step
To true emancipation
We try too hard to be too much
Like the worst of the nation
We are small, unappealing
underreaching and destroyed
But we’re getting better at the art
Of retaliation
The past was better
we were in control
Their light shines brighter
It’d be easy to end it all
Get there
Get there and look better
Be there
And care for each other
Stay there
Stay there and feel safer and away
Losing is the first step
To true emancipation
We try too hard to be too much
Like the worst of the nation
We are small, unappealing
underreaching and destroyed
But we’re getting better at the art
Of retaliation
