The Wends - A Better Will

LYRICS:

What’s the matter? You’re right
We live in hindsight
I didn’t notice the blight 
On my blindside

In wider circles we run
Chanting white lies
Was the sudden wrong turn
That made me realize

That I really want to know if the western world is at it’s all-time low
That I don’t want to waste no hope in this part-time job of barricades and brawls

We’re going nowhere
We don’t even need to take control
Cause everybody wants to lead the way
And I just feel like letting go

Well what do you know
It’s a well rehearsed show

Been replaced many times
I’ve been sidelined
Been returning the favor
Likewise

This ridiculous game
Makes me highlight
All the troubles I see
Passing by

Whether you collapse or not you’re just racing forward without second thoughts
Do you really want to go to the edge of the wall where us misfits fall
We know it’s over
We don’t care about taking your place
Cause everybody wants to set the pace
And we don’t feel like going on

The spot we hold
It’s liminal

A better will
A better will
Why don’t we wield a better will

We’re going nowhere
We don’t even need to take control
Cause everybody wants to lead the way
And I just feel like letting go

There you go
You spoiled the show

Cause everybody knows real well that the western world is at it’s all-time low
And that us sorry lot will know the absolute thrill of seeing it rot
