Losing War

""Tough times will erode our conditioned frail souls Tough times will erode our conditioned frail souls This erosion will always be An unwelcome reality What's ahead is cut and dry Looming like a blackened sky How do you fight a losing war The single encouragement is damage control How do you fight a losing war Improvise in trying times Bending the rules Tough times will erode our conditioned frail souls Tough times will erode our conditioned frail souls Wear erosion like a badge Tune out the lousy effect it's had An ironic victory Consolation's bittersweet How do you fight a losing war The single encouragement is damage control How do you fight a losing war Improvise in trying times Bending the rules as you go What's been keeping us going this far These times These moments The good life Remembrance in tough times What's been keeping us 'round this long These times These moments The good life Remembrance in tough times""
