DEGENERATION

It was just you and me
Out on the balcony
We were singing some songs
Your father once taught me

And isn't it cruel
Isn't it sickening
All that's been lost
It seems to be quickening

You're looking older
Your brother's a soldier
I remember when both of us got married
In late January
The weather was fine
We ran out of wine
And we all laughed about the good old times

You and me
Out here there's no mystery
When they come knocking, and you know they will
We'll shoot through our closed doors (And we'll be waiting for more)
It's been years since I've heard your laugh
Your tired eyes and your aching back
Our friends back home have gone raving mad
It's that bad
It's that bad

You're looking older
Your brother's a soldier
I remember when both of us got married
In late January
The weather was fine
We ran out of wine
And we all laughed about the good old times

When did everything change
Was it while I was away
Half our friends are now gay
Childless, and not where I thought they'd be
It's just you and me across the country
Two White American kids alone
At home with our enemies
Feed the fire
Now or never
Pray together
Kill all liars
One step higher
You're looking older
