Nerve Center from Open City by Open City

fight fight fight
is all we do
yell about it, but never move

call in sick
call it quits
stay in bed and read instead

I am tired and you are right
we’ve given up the fight
trading my cards in for other efforts
find a place where I can
be more effective
what a fucking joke

all we do is speak the truth
try to say this another way
we have to choose

call in sick
or call it quits
what is this all worth?

beat me up
I’ve had enough
I know that you think I
won’t come through for you
maybe this time I fucking won’t?

you know I don’t think that we can change this
we can’t if we don’t try
I know you think that I can’t change this
I can’t if you don’t let me.
