...a song about a collapsing system...

Lyrics

Nativity in me let me believe
Promises you made where ones you’d keep
but every step I take I’m two behind
By design and you know it
 
Willy Loman Shelly the machine
Partners in the same Survivors dream
Fighting as we’re swimming up the stream
Left behind and you know it
 
Broken Ladder
Going nowhere
Broken ladder
Going nowhere
 
Fool me once or twice Is how it’s played
More jaded than I was Just yesterday
Searching for an any other way
And we try not to show it
 
Even with a fracturing of faith
I still have some choices left to make
Better than just leaving it to fate
And I try not to blow it
 
Broken Ladder
Going nowhere
Broken ladder
Going nowhere
