Lyrics for Flint (For the Unemployed and Underpaid)

It's the same outside Driving to the riverside I pretend to cry Even if I cried alone I forgot the start Use my hands to use my heart Even if I died alone Even if I died alone Since the first of June Lost my job and lost my room I pretend to try Even if I tried alone I forgot the part Use my hands to use my heart Even if I died alone Even if I died alone Even if I died alone Even if I died alone Even if I died
