Dan Mangan - XVI Lyrics




[ Featuring Dan Mangan + Blacksmith ]

Wrestling the days since the staff crept away,
Sorta sleeping awake and just waiting, waiting,
I'm just going to wait 'til they say it's okay to ring that bell again.
You see, hook line and sinker, I'm in for the ride,
Got my eye on the prize and I know if I show that I'm willing to try to do it their way - I know what you'd say, you'd say I threw the family under the bus as if I hoped it would Crush us like I don't care. I do care, I swore and I swear,
I was thinking of you, always did and I do
I just see things so different, I just had to try
Like the market's middle child, we're not winning or losing, it's such sweet denial.
Up to the chin, but if we just buy in, we could thrive in the gutters and out on the towns and we're doubling down 'cause we're dying of boredom, there's nothing to do.
See if you hate the man, the man hates you too
Don't you think I have moments? Sure, I'd love to take charge.
'Cause we all see the farce, but we don't mention, mention the castle of cards.
And what's there to say? Let them eat cake?
