Skies Wide Shut Lyrics

Lately I've been adjusting my expectations for post-truth times
Lately I've been revisiting the defeatist in my mind,
Lately I've been talking all my friends off ledges
dust them off and send them home
then I climb back up there myself & I pick up where I left off
I can say the right words but not quite believe them
see the firmament pulled down
the Better World it turns out I believed in
burn it's last chance with a smile
so what now,
if this is the true face of the crowd?

I don't know what these fights can mean
Or what relief could the next turn could bring
if this is really You and Me

So what light, what tunnel
is this you want me to see?
