Tell me more about our success
About another recent victory
That only seems to depress
Isn't it just a little contradictory
When it leads to another down recess
We're driving on through the night
We've got only one working headlight
And we can't see half of the fight
We can't beat the enemy that's out of sight
So explain to me how this ends
Because I want to know my fate
Since you're so sure we've still got friends
Tell me why they're always so late
Face it we can't make amends
On the horizon there is daybreak
But it's just more sorrow we have to take
Where's that light at the end of the road
Why are we still speaking in code
Don't tell me about our success
We have tasted nothing but defeat
As people we just continue to regress
Just put us in a box and pour the concrete
Because we have nothing but death to confess
