From the recording This Is Where We Are Now
The first song from our album - 'Country & Western Suburbs'.
Lyrics
Middle aged and always tired
Unengaged and uninspired
Let down by those we admired, yeah
This is where we are now
This is where we are now
Cautious we are never reckless
Broken hearts the size of Texas
Making up for feckless exes, yeah
This is where we are now
This is where we are now
So much for history
So much for mystery
No place where we belong
So much for civil
So superficial
So much for moving on
Wondering where it was that we went wrong
Dead end streets of intuition
Adding up all our division
Battered body of ambition, yeah
This is where we are now
This is where we are now
So much confusion
Strange dissolution
No time for anyone
Wondering where it was that we went wrong
Strange benedictory
So much for victory
No chance to get along
So sacrificial
So prejudicial
So much for getting on
Wondering where it was that we went wrong
Every lie we tell is candid
We got all that we demanded
Nothing turned out as we planned it, yeah
This is where we are now
This is where we are now
