about

Written / Recorded by The American Plains

lyrics

There's no
Obvious explanation
That we're looking for
There's no
Way around it this time
We're pushing through that door

I watch you crumble in my hands
Like a castle made of sand
The waves they crash it
They're relentless
They're crushing you and me
They're relentless
I can see you weakening

We're so afraid
We will never be the men our fathers made
We're so afraid
We'll never be the sons our mothers made

Would you give it up
If you had to
Mail in your hopes and dreams
Like they had to
Would you give it up
If you had to
For a chance at something more

Work every night
From midnight to nine
Only to provide
You're a better man then I
