The Leisure Society - The Fine Art of Hanging On

Wide Eyes at Villains

And the radio keeps
Playing on regardless
Soft music set to violence

Another weekend binge
A promise things will change

They're making wide eyes
At villains
Avoiding all assistance
In stasis
Unchanging

Staring though the rain
With empty eyes
At nothing
Unfavoured or forgotten

But after all is said
Maybe he's not so bad?

They're making wide eyes
At villains
Avoiding all assistance
In stasis
Unchanging

Better found than lost alone?
Better the devil that you know!
In a world descending

And the radio keeps
Playing on regardless
Soft music set to violence
