Losing War

Ough times will erode our conditioned, frail souls
Tough times will erode our conditioned, frail souls
This erosion will always be
An unwelcome reality
What’s ahead is cut and dry
Looming like a blackened sky
How do you fight a losing war
The single encouragement is damage control
How do you fight a losing war
Improvise in trying times
Bending the rules
Tough times will erode our conditioned, frail souls
Tough times will erode our conditioned, frail souls
Wear erosion like a badge
Tune out the lousy effect it’s had
An ironic victory
Consolation’s bittersweet
How do you fight a losing war
The single encouragement is damage control
How do you fight a losing war
Improvise in trying times
Bending the rules as you go
What’s been keeping us going this far, these times
These moments, the good life
Remembrance, in tough times
What’s been keeping us 'round this long, these times
These moments, the good life
Remembrance, in tough times
