break your neck for some substance
this is temporary sanity
an exercise in vanity
so long to the ordinary day wrought with fictitious tales
of how there's any other way
hold on to anything at all
it's a long way down between the summer and the fall
if i told you that you're everything
would you sing along?
would you sing along?
it's a daily anthem
would you sing my song
at the top of your lungs?
and we'll all sing along
we'll all sing along
it's a half-baked blessing
for the lessons i've learned
never deserved. and we'll all sing along
oh we'll all sing along
now the verses take hold
a gentle undercurrent of more years to grow old
say goodbye to the cold
and try to forgive everything this night. as we sing your daily anthem
would you sing my song
at the top of your lungs?
and we'll all sing along
we'll all sing along
it's a half-baked blessing
for the lessons i've learned
never deserved. and we'll all sing along
we'll all sing along
