Could have been shot by this one
though it might've been mine
Should've been left by the rest
stop if you had been kind

"but I got a funny way of feeling
and feeling you wasn't right
there's nothing left to believe in
so believe in me this time"

the senator said as he called his blushing bride
oh, his bride

but why hold steady
when tomorrow's always turning out bad
and why hold steady
when the future's in the walls
but the malls are coming back
coming back

Could've been called to rescue down at morgan dell
Should've been left by the pumphouse if you had been well
but all this was there in the sand dunes
so set it up and let them ride

you got dressed up too soon
now you're starting to feel alright
if you can't be great you might as well be bright
oh, be bright

but why hold steady
when tomorrow's always turning out bad
why hold steady
when the future's in the walls
but the malls are coming back
coming back

and you're making the eyes
and you're making the eyes all wooden

and why hold steady
when tomorrow's always turning out bad
why hold steady
when the future's in the walls
but the malls are coming back
coming back
