Times Worth Living (The Tension) Lyrics & Tabs by Pat The Bunny
Times Worth Living (The Tension)
guitar chords lyrics
It's too late for me, my friends.
Once I gave refuge to the notion, even for a moment, there was no turning back to comfort again.
Only a lifetime of defeats, more or less spectacular, so I'll march on to your court dates.
I'll gather court dates of my own.
I'll miss the ones in prisons and the ones who never made it there.
The ones who said: "
Onward, comrades!" to our death, with ruin on their breath, the weight of centuries on their tongues, loading failed manifestos in their guns.
As if defeat, repeated often, could someday mean we had won.
Our history's a vacant lot littered with empty bank accounts, sobbing parents, broken bones, glorious songs, lengthy prison terms, a handful of moments that were truly our own, in between desperate gasping for air worth breathing and times worth living.
In between desperate gasping for air worth breathing and times worth living in.
