alaskan pipeline

you might as well surrender now

you'll never hold that stance

with all my words

i can't find one

to help you understand

it's not too late

take up the cup

put down your weapons and choose

but you say life's so unfair

all you say is life's so unfair

oh

you can ill afford to hold to these views

oh

you need something to blame

but it's you

yes

it's you

it's your truth

someone made you

i don't know if you're sick

i comfort

you runaway

my sympathy

you twist it

you're reflex

gets in the way

you mother me

i son you

you act up

i can't get through

these footsteps so ancient

in your eyes

i'm your infant

your ancient full circle

in my eyes

you're my infant

dead ball in our court

we've got a dead ball in our court

you just say life's so unfair

yes

you just say

life's so unfair"
