Straylight Run

Damage control.
They're so thoroughly modern.
We'll tell you how it goes
It's not a serious problem.
So we can be convinced
and we can get convinced,
but either way, the truth is bound to get twisted.
You can take a break
when the fate of the world is
waiting on your next decision.
So I focused on what I've been promised
and they tore us open,
bled us dry of our dignity and money.
It's all under control
so keep holding it together.
Well, things just fall apart,
but you know we can't wait forever.
So come and try to keep, keep this stupid grin short
so you can keep your job.
They'll never know the difference.
Keep it going one day,
a month, a year or more.
Ignore that sinking feeling.
