We Are All We’ve Ever Really Had

another store front sits abandoned
selling memories of a happier time
cried through the crash to face the fallout
guess we’re all we’ve got left now

the TV men will turn your Tuesday black
and tell you that your life ain’t coming back

but, brother please remember
we are all we’ve ever really had
we are all we’ve ever really had

roll our own smoke and brew our own life-blood
and if I see you out, I’ll say god bless

cause the fears that we’ve got here, we gotta give em back
to the maniacs and the quacks and the quarterbacks
the one percents and the nonsense the Freddie macs

Sister, please remember
we are all we’ve ever really had
we are all we’ve ever really had
we are all we’ve ever really had
