Lyrics for I'm Still Here
Prevent an opening If the consequence is that nothing is gained A smug indifference, the bland informants It's not alright by me Differences remain the same The game is lost in one fell swoop Of nothing consequential in time But I'm still here waiting for mercy Intent on maintaining the status without meaning I guess that something's not right The arbitration of this elation is such that I am sad
