Streetlight Manifesto - Failing, Flailing lyrics

you say you've got the cure but i don't have a disease and you say you've got the answers but i've made no inquiries and you're failing bailing good god motherf**er now i see you flailing i see you flailing that's right i think i do i see you flailing away i know it's hard but so are you and so am i and we'll pull through together, together and i said that it's been years but i still fear that someone dear will leave me here forever, forever and i said: hey! you've got to keep trying you've got to keep holding onto what you've got because what you've got it sure ain't a lot and hey! everyone's falling down everyone's holding out for what you've got but what you've got, it sure ain't a lot and you act like it is but you know that it's not and even if it was, would you ever give it up? if i told you what you had was really nothing? nothing? nothing! yes, it's nothing nothing at all so you say your life's a bore and i can't quite disagree if you judge your life by the pieces of sh** that inhabit your tv because they stand so proud, and they talk too loud and every other word is a lie i've found that everyone who is anyone is a waste of time a waste of time i know it's hard but so are you and so am i and we'll pull through together, together and i said that it's been years but i still fear that someone dear will leave me here forever, forever and i said: hey! you've got to keep trying you've got to keep holding onto what you've got because what you've got it sure ain't a lot and hey! everyone's falling down everyone's holding out for what you've got but what you've got, it sure ain't a lot and you act like it is but you know that it's not and even if it was, would you ever give it up? if i told you what you had was really nothing? nothing? nothing! yes, it's nothing nothing at all nothing you won't say nothing you won't say nothing and that's just fine nothing (take me back to that day when i was blind) you won't say nothing (I would like to see your face one last time) you won't say nothing (take me back to that day when i was blind) and that's just fine (I would like to see your face one last time) sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me and it's been years but still i fear that someday they'll desert me oh, it's hard, i know when it's time to stand alone and no one understands you sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me and it's been years but still i fear that someday they'll desert me oh, it's hard, i know when it's time to stand alone and no one understands you sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me and it's been years but still i fear that someday they'll desert me oh, it's hard, i know when it's time to stand alone and no one understands you
